personally I'm not a big fan of the anagrams as it is too hard to climb "into" them i.e. so much time is spent recognising that they are anagrams in the first place; secondly, so many European cities that with an anagram line the link should be much tighter than that - capitals maybe. But good effort, I got all the links but couldn't get the clues in on time.

Personally, I disagree- well hidden anagrams are commendable - though maybe limiting to the 1 country would be better (pairs? Mines?). One of them did scream"Anagram" to me, and that was enough. But they do make a grid harder.

Big fan of the hidden anagrams. Didn't get that one though, agree with Mister Tom that it's a bit wide and doing 1 country would be better. The "moon" group is a bit poor though.

Agreed - the 'moon' group is very weak. Also, to fit the context of the rest of its group 'Celtic' should have been 'Celts'
