    Smile Crossword Clues

    Dare I risk ANOTHER new thread Keith???

    Does anybody like crosswords?

    There are some very clever compilers out there who come up with some CRACKING clues. Here's a couple to start you off - can you solve these?

    1. Blue and white flower of Africa. - 4 letters

    2. HIJKLMNO - 5 letters

    Good luck.

    I used to love doing crosswords (especially Azed and Araucaria) but I developed other interests on a Sunday - such as hangovers

    One clue I always remember from Araucaria that caused us a lot of was:

    Astany portorm? (3,4,2,1,5)

    49%? - 100%! (3,4)
