Just over a year of doing the NYT crossword every day and starting to see the gold stars a bit more frequently. Getting familiar with some of the Americanisms and those funny recurring three letter words (nail varnish anyone😄). Today was a slog but I got there eventually so have that merry feeling of mild smugness to set me up for the day. Like others I struggled with the NE corner particularly samlet, Sasson and Ned but trial and error got me there in the end.
