Hi Anokha!
Good to see your blog.
I understand and appreciate your point.
After completing the postings in hub, I came here to see the job done by you. Good show!
I will be showing up whenever I feel like.
Keep it up!
Was blogging on the same crossword in the past but my activity is now in several other forums, one of which is is The Hindu/ET crossword solutions group at Orkut, where the quota system is in force so those in US time zome may not complete the crossword before those in the IST zone had their chance.
Here is the link:

There was another blog on the same crossword but it is long since dead.
http://vinodraman.blogspot.com/2005/07/hindu-crossword-2612-solutions.html
Ganesh and I have a smaller Orkut private group (present membership 12) where we solve UK crosswords, clue text kindly posted by my co-owner.
Here anyone in any zone can post all the answers in one go.
Crosswords solved are The Times, The Financial Times, The Sunday Times.
hello,
hope your site attracts many bloggers.
the 'hub' has become a bit inconvenient esp. for US residents, more so,if you are in the west coast.
also, the restriction(4) further acknowledges the fact that the 'hub' is a competition/
race page,similar to the many TV shows aired here.
i expect solvers to refer to these sites, ONLY after they have spent their alloted time.
i will be happy to visit your blog whenever convenient.
regards,
CLUELESS
hi,
re 9209 --
i suspect a misprint under 2 DOWN.
i think the last word should be FIVE instead of FIRE - then it becomes easy to solve.
am i correct?

Hi Clueless - You could be right, I just solved it with the letters that were there in other places and the clue "alternative."
Thanks a ton KKR sir, C'Vasi sir, and CLUELESS for visiting and posting your comments.
Please do let me know if you guys would like to join and post. I am trying to figure out this whole "blog" thing and I will find out how others can post.
Thanks again!
