How large is the print?

Grids and clue text are both set well above a newspaper crossword, with one puzzle per page and its clues beside it rather than in a separate section. The trade-off is a slightly smaller grid than a broadsheet puzzle — which is the right trade if you have been squinting at one.

Straightforward, not cryptic. Every clue is a plain definition of one answer, and the themes are everyday subjects. If you enjoy a quick crossword with a cup of tea, these are pitched at you.

Are the clues checked?

Yes, twice. Each clue is hand-written to define exactly one answer, and each grid is machine-verified so that every clue printed on a page has an entry really in that grid. A clue with nowhere to write the answer is the fastest way to lose a solver.

Are the answers included?

Yes — a full solutions section at the back, with every grid filled in.

Can I copy it for a group?

Yes. The licence covers unlimited printing for your own home, care home, library, club or classroom. It does not cover reselling the file.

Look inside

Building real pages…

One hundred themed crosswords set in large type, one per page, with the clue list on the page beside its grid rather than fifty pages away. Themes are everyday and familiar — the kitchen, the flower border, garden birds, the old high street, travel by rail, tea and coffee.

The clues are the product. Every one is hand-written to a single rule: it must define exactly one answer. A clue that admits a synonym is what gets a crossword book one-starred, so anything that could not be narrowed to one word was rewritten or cut. There are no proper nouns, no brands and no dates.

And every grid is checked before it prints. The layout engine drops entries it cannot fit; a book that printed those clues anyway would list questions with no squares to answer them in. Here a grid is only accepted once every clue on the page corresponds to an entry really in the grid.
