Crosswords

No I don't mean the angry kind...lol. I mean the kind that you find in magazines and newspapers.  If you find those magazines in public places, such as the doctor's surgery, someone else has usually beaten you to it. There is nothing quite like the pleasure of happening upon a completely blank untouched crossword. A clean slate that is all yours. I have recently discovered that you can access crossword puzzles online and there are even free ones.
