====== Kea ====== ===== Recruitment ===== It was at a Listener Crossword setters' dinner in Leeds, I think. During preprandial milling-about [[Arepo]] took me aside, made me test-solve one of his crosswords, and then showed me this grubby little organ full of cabalistic symbols and usages. //First Issue//: Aug 1993 ===== Recruits ===== None. ===== Nom ===== I'm from New Zealand myself, so when I started setting Listener crosswords, I wanted something antipodean for my pseudonym. Chambers' definition (until 1988) of KEA was "a New Zealand parrot which sometimes kills sheep". I thought this was admirable, and appropriate, in the sense that I felt I was copying the efforts of the masters, but I hoped that my puzzles might catch the unwary by surprise. ==== Combinoms ==== * Keown: Kea/[[100down|100 Down]] * Luke: [[lunchboy|Lunch Boy]]/Kea * Xema: [[xemu|Xemu]]/Kea ===== Offices ===== No data.
