This brand new Charity Quiz of 100 cryptic clues is now available.
Compiled by your very own puzzle solver and maker, gen2, this quiz has been 9 months in the making and comprises 100 cryptic clues on the theme of 'Flowers of Scotland'. Every answer either is, or contains, a Scottish Flower. The flowers are of two types: 75 of type A and 25 of type B.
The quiz is to raise funds for the upkeep of the premises owned by Kirkcaldy Art Club (Registered Scotish Charity number SCO 37822).
Closing date is January 31st 2012.
If you enjoy the 'Rainbow Quizzes', or even my previous offerings of 'Rocky Horrors', 'Terrible Twos', 'ART-TRA' or 'Not Holly but Ivy', then I am sure you will enjoy this 'Flowers of Scotland' one as well.
Do you have friends, relatives or work colleagues who enjoy these types of quiz? Then why not order several copies?
Quizzes are available . B Y . P O S T . for just £1 each + SAE (Yes! £1 - that's just 1p a question!)
Cheques should be made payable to 'Kirkcaldy Art Club' and the envelope should be DL size (~ 9" x 4") or c5 size (9" x 6.4") i.e. for A4 sheets folded in 3, or in half.
BUT remember that envelopes larger than C5 will require a more expensive stamp.
ALSO, a standard stamp will only cover up to TWO quizzes (each quiz comprises 3 sheets of A4)
