On shore. Struggling over one letter probably cost me a first-ever page 1.

But I'm happy it's Guinness time.

On the beach with 99+% certainty. Just one thing bothering me that I have to think through before I submit.

Grid done, think I have it figured out but not quite to shore yet. (Why should I have all the fun when Mary hasn't even seen it yet!)

I'm counting myself on shore and have submitted, though I'm sure there's something that I'm missing.

Nice puzzle by Patrick!

On shore! Impressive! Knew what was going on pretty quickly but still took a while to get it right.

SAME! (though I would add “nearly” since I caught the very bottom of page one.). I wonder if we had the same one letter difference… I can make a very good case for mine!
The other Wendy. :roll:
