I love crosswords but I’m not very good at them. I don’t think I have ever finished one without phoning my parents or another old person who has a better list of words that they know vocabulary. Last night was no exception and it was too late to phone anyone old; I couldn’t sleep because of it. What I thought I do is make my own to help send me to sleep and then, because I’d made it surely I would be able to do it at a later date after I’d forgotten I’d made it. I’m going to leave it somewhere I wont look for several months (like the salad drawer in the fridge).

I’ve decided to put it on my blog so that other people can do it too. In fact, because I’m feeling so pleased with myself, if you complete it and send it back to be I will write a poem for you (if you are the first person to send it back).

Here it is… good luck!
