You folks are genius. I only hope I can attain your level and answer questions instead of posing them.

the more you get yourself involved, the better you become from the knowledge you recieve on here. I have been doing crosswords for 15+ years at beginner stage (sun, star etc) the daily mail used to take me over 3 hours to complete (if i completed it). with-in a couple of months on here watching how the masters parse, i currently take an average of an hour now, and complete most of the time without use of the net. FREE knowledge, don't look a gift horse in the mouth. : )

shoota

Hi Shooty - I used to sit in the library at school with The Times crossword and be pleased if I got two or three answers. Now I can sometimes, depending on the setter, finish it without even a dictionary never mind the web - only taken 38 years!

but i have (hopefully) got time on my side, to catch up : )
