Puzzle Notes

Dear Crossword Nation Subscribers, 

Last week's "brief getaway" resulted in some wanderlust-y feelings. The promise of travel -- perhaps brought on by sprouting crocuses, warmer weather and mass vaccination sites -- makes one think of globetrotting again. At least in one's dreams, right? My parents were married in England and my brother was born there. I've always had a penchant for the U.K. and would love to visit again. 

In this week's puzzle, we zip across the pond to test our knowledge of relatively-recent facts befitting of the elegant and erudite British cryptic puzzle genre. But no worries -- we're still in American crossword mode. Stream "The Crown," grab your sparkliest tiara and enjoy a cup of tea. All will be clear as you work through the puzzle!

Welcome to Week 510 of Crossword Nation. We cordially invite you to solve "Succession at 10 Downing Street" as your diversion of the week. 

Be well and happy, Dear Ones.

Cruciverbally yours,

Liz
