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 ART -TRA - hence the title 'Art, but not as you know it'. Every answer either contains ART or TRA as three consecutive letters. That must make it easier than the last one since you already know three letters in every answer!

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 2010.

If you enjoy the 'Rainbow Quizzes', or have recently enjoyed Crofter's Dragonfly Quizzes for Pauline, or even my previous offerings of 'Rocky Horrors', and 'Terrible Twos', then I am sure you will enjoy the 'ART - TRA' 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 for just £1 each + SAE
Cheques should be made payable to 'Kirkcaldy Art Club' and the envelope should be DL size (~ 9" x 4")
BUT remember that larger envelopes require a more expensive stamp.
ALSO, a standard stamp will only cover up to TWO quizzes (each quiz comprises 3 sheets of A4)

Smouse & Fibonacci,

When I did my first one, the committee said no to email distribution - just money up front. However, circumstances have changed and last year I sent a couple by email that were going abroad. Therefore I will take it upon myself to say 'Yes', I will send out copies by email.

As for Paypal, 'No', payment by that method is not possible at the moment.

The email address to request copies is:

grytvikengen2

googlemail.com

I hope you can reassemble that address which I have split in an attmpt to reduce spam.
Many thanks for the prompt reply and I will send for one directly.
Hi Gen2

I enjoyed solving your tasters and will be sending off for my quiz on Monday.

Cheers
Gen 2

A small query - I don't think No 10 quite works -second O for E maybe?

Yes 'K', you are correct. Well spotted. Thank you.

I sincerely hope there are no mistakes in the main quiz. In order to reduce the chance of errors, one of AB's esteemed members (Crofter) checked over the whole quiz last month and I hope that between us, we have discovered and corrected any slip-ups.

A word of reassurance to anyone who left an SAE at the end of the last quiz. . .

All copies were posted 2 days ago, but with postal workers taking action just now, I imagine there will be some delay before they get delivered.
Question Author
All genuine requests are welcome but I will not be responding to Junk mail.

A big thank you to all those who have requested copies.
Gen does that mean Q10 is wrong,if so can you print out what it should be.
Question Author
No RAZZA, there are NO known mistakes in the quiz.

The only mistake is in the 10th taster question asked above in my second reply to this thread.

Question 10 in the quiz is exactly as printed.
