Ashore. The grid was definitely harder than the Meta.

Late start, and a longer swim than it should have been. Woodford rocks please!
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

Done and done.
If I'm around, I am willing to join the Muggle Zoom room at other times to lend a hand to those in need.

What's this gritty stuff I'm stepping in? Sand? Ah, I must be on the beach (it's been a while).

We had to work for the meta! But we enjoyed the solution and the structure.

Hmm, think Matt saw all the comments about hard metas the last few weeks and decided to give us a break? I’ll take it! On shore🏖🥂
If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.

(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)
