crossword winners

[elderly]

I have been doing the Sunday Telegraph and Sunday Mail prize crosswords for months and months. Usually get them right But have never won.

Has anybody won either of these?

[Patch49]

Your chances of success will increase if you do puzzles that fewer people enter. I used to do the weird one in the Independent Saturday magazine and won it twice!

Yes I know someone who won the suday Mail crossword 18 months aga

Is the Sunday Telegraph crossword cryptic or trivia based?

Sunday Telegraph is a General Knowledge crossword.

[barender]

Not these but I did win the Sunday Express General Knowledge Crossword once.

Elderly, I won the Observer Everyman (�15.00 book token) about 14 years ago, and again jointly with friends from my local pub just a fortnight ago. We were The Railway Inn Solvers, Isle of Man, just in case anyone's interested! Twice in fourteen years is not a great track-record, but it has to be said I/we haven't been doing the Everyman consistently during that time.

At the Railway, we were quite chuffed to win this time after only a few weeks of submitting our crossword.

I won the Mail on Sunday �1500 X-word in December, just in time for Christmas & my cruise in January! I've been doing the X-word for 7 YEARS

Never thought I would win the Sunday Mail crossword but did yesterday! Very nice prize. Keep trying and good luck.
