Slitherlink variations
The addictive kwontomloop (Fences/Slitherlink) site now has a variations daily puzzle too. https://kwontomloop.com/var/index.php
There are 5 or 6 styles. I'm enjoying this new daily challenge. I expect some of you might too.

You can but grip matting online, or even at some supermarkets. Not that expensive, and might help.

Re: Experienced solver, novice quick-solver
Welcome Chris!
There's plenty practice material here for you.
Perhaps head to the contests tab on the main site, and try the old UK sudoku (and puzzle!) championships.
Yes, hope to see you, and many more new puzzlers, at the 2019 Open events!

Re: PuzzleUp
The puzzles are all mathematical. Usually quite enjoyable to solve. My only gripe is the answers are never published. There is an explanation on the site of why this is so.
