First of April, April Fool's day. So the Guardian Crossword included clues to San Serriffe, Spaghetti Tree, Upper Caisse and Lower Caisse, Panorama, General Pica, and so forth.
Marvellous, of course, but it relied heavily on a certain cultural background and knowledge going back nearly fifty years. I suspect that a lot of cryptic crosswords do, to some extent or another. Today's was just very noticeable.
