I thought once in my life I should start a topic. Being on the early end of the planet (Australia), I hope I'm not being TOO early for today's puzzle.

I found no less than 3 xyz wings. Just one of them was useful, with fulcrum 359. It eliminated a 3, setting up an xy wing 139. The xy wing pinched on 1 and led to the solution.

I'll let somebody else spell this out more fully.

Play this puzzle online at the Daily Sudoku site

Grid after basics. I also found the obvious 135 XY wing which removes a
couple of 3s in column 7 but leads to nothing....
