Hindu Crossword #8643 - June 30

I used to be good on solving Hindu Crosswords back in college at BITS, around 7 years back. I have even managed to completely solve few grids. After that, i have lost touch, with random attempts here and there. Last month, when I was travelling to India for vacation, I tried my hand at the cryptic crossword appearing in the Gulf newspaper. Surprisingly, I still could manage a few!
So, back in Cyprus now. Started this blog mainly to remind me to keep posting to it, i.e keep attempting the daily crossword. Lets see how long it takes before I manage a decent number on a single day!
