    The perceived difficulty seems highly dependent on being on the same wavelength as the setter. Often, I struggle playing along with some of the lower SNITCH puzzles' clues getting only a handful of answers, but found most of this one comparatively easy with just missing a few awkward ones (and different ones that you took a while to get)

    Nicely done. Always annoying when you get a clue right but fall over on its spelling. Quite a few clues there that would have had me floundering.

    Gotta hate those odd spellings! Great job anyway. Can’t be perfect all the time.
