AMAZING!!!! 15.10 and not one person asking for Saturdays Linked Answers, either the cheap skates have started buying the paper or have realised theres a dedicated phone line to get them.

[DrFilth]

the phone line costs 60p a minute.has the paper gone up today 90p ?

[shaneystar2]

That's as maybe but perhaps some people forget to write them down and put the papers in the bin not thinking .We can't all be perfect .
I often forget to make a note and have to rake through to find the links .I only buy the Telegraph on Saturdays and Mondays anyway .And the ST once a month .90p is extortionate for a daily paper .
Don't forget some people live on fixed incomes .It's not a matter of them being "cheap skates "..If I do remember to write them down and someone asks for them I am only too happy to give them.And I'm blowed if I would phone up them ....not a 60p a minute .

I always photocopy the crosswords before I do them then I have a copy of everything. I thought that this weeks Herculis was rather easy.

[Aquagility]

Far too easy!

[hadrianjeffs]

&, most probably important of all, that phone line isn't available to all phone users. It is, after all, a number that's usually barred unless you request otherwise.

[columbus]

No! I disagree as unless you can get it in the post by lunch on aturday, it won't be collected till Monday so you might as well wait and make sure. Also I have a theory that most of those wanting Saturdays Answers are workers who don't buy weekend papers hence cheapskates. Plus don't you realisae by giving the clues away you are reducing your own chances of winning.

[shaneystar2]

You are just being petty.
Anyone can find the Links on here just by looking through the threads . This is what I do if I have forgotten to write them down.
I very much doubt that by helping someone with the links that my chances of winning are reduced .They must get thousands of entries .It's the luck of the draw .
It's no skin off my nose to help someone... unlike some .
Whingers , moaners and petty people like you only serve to cheese me off with society in general.
What happened to camaraderie on this section ?
