Hey - I won last Saturday's DTGK crossword!

I was neatly folding the page to do this week's when there it was - my name! I am surprised you did not hear the shriek all over the land!!

Thanks to all the people here who are so generous with their time and knowledge.

Wow! Isn't it a splendiferous feeling to see your name there in print!! You'll have to frame it!!! 'Felicitations' as they say en France!

Thanks to everyone for your kind remarks.

The cheque has not arrived yet, but the money is already spent - something for my sister who always helps me out with crosswords, and my niece is 18 next Saturday, so she will be getting a slightly better present than she expected!

Well done Avis! I was pleased when I saw your name as we met once and I like to think that if i can't win then it is good if it is someone I know of! (I used to be Reading locsec if that gives you a clue who I am.)

Have just come home from a weekend away - missed Sat crossword- but thought I would just have a look to see what has happened over the weekend and low and behold a winner - well done
