Christmas Puzzle 2017
This year's annual Charity Christmas Puzzle has now been posted, and is available to download.
This, the 27th annual Puzzle that Gordon Gray has set, has a theme designed to help completion and will appeal to people who enjoy doing Crossword puzzles, such as in the Daily Telegraph (though it is not a Crossword puzzle). Puzzlers have plenty of time to find the answers and Puzzles should be returned, with donation, by 28 January 2018.
Gordon has posted Puzzles to those on distribution list, so these should be received in the next few days. Anyone else who would like a copy of the Puzzle can access it from the web at www.christmaspuzzle.co.uk. Alternatively puzzles can be collected from St Mary's Eaton Bray.
All the money you donate, except for the prize-money, will go to charity.
Any corrections will be posted to the blog and to the corrections page.

,David Bradman says:Thanks for another wonderful puzzle. I'm just getting started. Would it be pedantic to suggest that 1b should probably have one more space after the _ _ _ VER _?

,Peter Reed says:Another great puzzle! Thanks. I think I have finished it, except that I didn't find a homophone in 6 to 10. Surely 'found' is not the homophone?
