So easy when you have the answer
Thanks all

BlueIce

Surprised that Nerja and LPP don't
send in the completed grids - but grateful that the chances of winning are increased! Personally, I'm a Crossword Mercenary - if it's not got a Prize, then I don't do it. It's not the taking part that's important,it's the (chance of) winning!

Then one could do an easy one like the sunday Mirror and win �100
I prefer one that lasts a bit and I feel good if I do it - especially if I manage without help
A prize would certainly be a bonus but the Observer only gives you a dictionary I think!
