More to the point frankofile, how are the questioners getting their copies at 1am? My own local paper shop opens at 7am but I am sure that 24hr garages have papers on sale before then but I'm never up early enough to find out.
Actually, you don't have to have done the crossword in order to answer people's questiions as long as they post the FULL CLUE, the NUMBER OF LETTERS in the answer and any letters that have already been found. I never do a crossword until I go to bed.
