Aug 24, 2011 Hypercross Puzzle

Took a while for that one to click.. but once it did...

amy salt on #9?

I didn't figure out the (clever) theme until after I finished the puzzle.

amazing! (once again Philana)

[2] it's a specific type of object seen there. If you got the theme, then you'll have an easier time.

Great, now I've got the "Put the lime in the cocunut" song stuck in my head.

Nice hyper though!

Normally, words that I know escape me when I stare at clues. This time, they all just settled into place like they do in normal people's brains.

nice "a-HA" moment

I finished it, but I have no idea what the theme is.

Unrelated: there's no longer a comment refresh button, do they refresh automatically now?

[8] a) Did you notice a recurring 3 letters in each answer?

b) No, they don't, you have to refresh the page to see them. :(

Grrr. US Spelling gets me every time!

[11] Which word(s) got you with US spelling? Just curious...

Spelling on one word. Google had it spelled so many ways!

[12]
I think it was the sleepwear item. The rest of the English speaking world uses a y in the word.

[12] I'm guessing he means #5.

Good enough to earn my pumpkin!

I see the theme...but I have NO idea what #9 is called.

[17] try googling "multi-hulled boats"

Any Salt for 13 and 14?
If 14 is what I thought was obvious, then it doesn't cross with #1.

Edit: post and solve

really cute

Aha moment on the theme came part-way though and is pretty good.
Had to get help on the miniature crocodile.
Nice HC!

For once, a nice easy one.

nicely clued...took a few clues then I had the theme, but I cannot spell, so it took a bit of research to see which one I messed up. Thanks.

The puzzle was nice n easy from just the pics. It took a disappointingly long time for me to understand the title. Duh.

accckkk! #9 was a little difficult. ;)P
