This brand new Charity Quiz of 100 cryptic clues is now available.
Compiled by your very own puzzle solver and maker, gen2, this quiz has been 9 months in the making and comprises 100 cryptic clues on the theme of 'Not Holly but Ivy'. Every answer contains the same two consecutive letters. That must make it easy, particularly the shorter answers, since you already know two letters in every answer!
The quiz is to raise funds for the upkeep of the premises owned by Kirkcaldy Art Club (Registered Scotish Charity number SCO 37822).
Closing date is January 31st 2010.
If you enjoy the 'Rainbow Quizzes', or have recently enjoyed Crofter's Dragonfly Quizzes for Pauline, or even my previous offerings of 'Rocky Horrors', 'Terrible Twos' or 'ART-TRA', then I am sure you will enjoy the 'Not Holly but Ivy' one as well.
Do you have friends, relatives or work colleagues who enjoy these types of quiz? Then why not order several copies?
Quizzes are available for just £1 each + SAE
Cheques should be made payable to 'Kirkcaldy Art Club' and the envelope should be DL size (~ 9" x 4")
BUT remember that larger envelopes may require a more expensive stamp.
ALSO, a standard stamp will only cover up to TWO quizzes (each quiz comprises 3 sheets of A4)

Those who left SAEs after the last quiz should have received them by now. They were put in the post on Sunday.
