I've Given Up With The Crosswords. I Am Too Slow.

[Tilly2]

How do people answer so quickly? It takes me ages to work out the answers with a pencil and a piece of paper.

[Hopkirk]

Don't beat yourself up - I don't understand them even when told the answer.

[marval]

I frequently get beaten to it.

[shoota]

You may be slow but you are perfectly formed and reasonably witty.

[Tilly2]

Thank you, hoppy. That is reassuring. It is irritating though. There are some clever so and so's on here and I am not in their league.

[Captain2]

Ahhh come on back Tilly we'll miss you otherwisae.

[Tilly2]

reasonably witty! Thank you, Mr condescending shoota. That's you off my Christmas Card list.

[Tilly2]

I'm not going anywhere, Captain. Just saying, like.

[DTCwordfan]

Stick at it, tilly, re your crosswords. As to me, with some of the ijiuts on here, I am giving up on spelling and grammar. I've couldnte gif a feck abut there stoopod cumments.

[shoota]

(It was going to be 'moderately witty'.......)

[pixie373]

I know the feeling. It's partly that my phone is slow to load, and there are two answers by the time i see the question. But i think i really need to wait for scorpiojo's day off. She is a genius.

[Tilly2]

I think I might stick to posting inane questions on CB, DTC. No controversy or irritation there!

Moderately is still not good enough, shoota. I am deeply hurt.

[shoota]

Anyway, when did you put me back on your Christmas card list after the last time you took me off it?

[DTCwordfan]

Danny and bibblebub too - haven't seen that much of OldRed around recently.....

[Tilly2]

Let's gang up on jo, pixie. She's the one!

[boxtops]

I type quickly, tilly, from a lifetime of typing - so apologies if it's sometimes me who beats you to it!

[Tilly2]

or kayakamina.


Roslyn's good too.

[Tilly2]

I don't need apologies, boxy. I just need quicker reactions and brain power.

[boxtops]

I look at see who's answering before I have a stab. If dannyk's around, or jo, or LIK (to name but a few) - I have to move fast!

[pixie373]

There are lots of very quick people, but they were all here before me, except Jo. So I'm blaming her completely. lol.

Mamyalynne explained that people log on to Crosswords rather than waiting for Latest Posts oh and Sam is brilliant in the evenings
