Chambers Xwd Paperback Dictionary.

[noviceman1]

Has anyone bought the Chambers XWD crossword dictionary.
If so would they be good enough to give their opinion of it,and if possible where I can get a new one at a fair price.

I have this one in hardback and wouldn't be without it.

Its good but mrs bradford is better

Depends whose crossword you're doing. I have Chambers 11th edition...very good if you're doing the Daily Mail. Got mine cheap on line.

[naomirod]

In fact I have a new one I never use,if you live anywhere nesr Burton on trent you can have it

[Mamyalynne]

I agree Bradfords is good, but I use all my reference books equally - Chambers Crossword Dictionary is an excellent tool.

Naomirod,I have noted your comments,however I would not feel comfortable taking it off you at no charge and I live in the Warrington area.
Many thanks to you and all the others who passed on their valuable advice.

Obiter,just had a quick glance at your suggestion.
It looks interesting,it could be useful for me to refer to when I am wrestling with a clue,which unfortunately is quite often.
