Good morning all

Bit slow on the uptake this morning, have got a STINKER of a cold but I have managed to complete the crosswords as best as I can and for those who would like to check your answers against mine or if you are a little bit stuck I have completed and posted my answers to the Mail On Sunday Crosswords these can be found at my fotothing.com site; http://www.fotothing.com/MadSteve/

I hope once again that this helps someone who needs them.

Regards
MadSteve

Some whisky and two weeks in bed and you will feel much better

[madsteve]

Wish I could Sly,Duck I can't sleep at the best of times, so when I'm like this I'm a like the preverbial bear with a sore head, or as my other half says " A PAIN IN THE ..."

Steve
I am sure we all bow to your crossword skills but I do think it woiuld be fairer if you were to publish the answers on the Wednesday after the competition. Some people are too lazy to try and find the answers themselves and just spend five minutes copying your solution and sending it off to win the prize money. It is not fair on genuine crossword (attempt) solvers who try to excersise their brain by attempting the competition fairly - That is just my opinion, Dick

[Sly,Duck]

Other sites put the full crossword up so they would just copy from them.Before i found this site i was stuck on one question. Went into the town centre and purchased a book and found the name of the person i wanted . Think it was on page 52.

[Chopswick]

Get well soon Steve, it has taken me three weeks to get rid of an awful dry cough and a rotten cold - hope you feel better quicker than that.

what time do you start the xwords on sunday morning ?

[Hussar]

Re Dicmor

Mad Steve's help on the last few is great each week!. No use having them on Wednesday. One does not HAVE to look at them if you are so smart as to complete them all without assistance.

Hope Steve recovers quickly

[madsteve]
