Sisyphus

A crossword ‘ordinaire’! But what an abundant resource for your theme- not one I have much personal experience in but easy enough to access for checking the NHOs. I liked the way a number of numbers were red herrings, and loved solving the ones that weren’t! Hard to pick faves but they certainly include these: 9a, 10a, 27a, 3d, 6d, 18d, & 19d. Thanks Podger for another excellent puzzle!

Another inventive theme Podger done with finesse. I was slow to get off the mark but once the penny dropped, it was 41. Like Sisyphus it's not a theme that I'm overly familiar with. My favourites were 17a, 22a, 19d ,5d. Thanks

A lot of fun - despite the fact that the theme was entirely NHO, once I realised what was going on, they came to mind anyway with neat wordplay. Faves include 9a,12a,15a,20a, 5d,6d,18d,23d

Very enjoyable! Not over familiar with the theme but knew one or two and others became obvious from the clever constructions and crossers. Totally flummoxed by 7d and NHO 22a but a great surface, as they all are. Favourites are 21d, 19d, 9a, 15a and 25a, thanks Podger.
