They drive my crazy.
However my DSL's uncle from Scotland was over while I was in Toronto and I did the letter puzzles with him. They come in one of the British news papers. They give you 9 letters in three rows of 3. The center letter has to be used in all the words. Now try to make as many words with at least 4 letters. Amazingly fun to do

Haven't seen that one yet, Els. I'll have to have a look.
Katherine
Sounds familiar, .... been there done that....LOL Skye will come and lean against my leggs, look up and starts with...." Omaaaa, " add a big smille and here comes the request. Often one that her mother has just told her she can't have or do...... Never mind I think it still makes you a great grand mother in my book.
Els
I have to ask Uncle John what the name of the paper is and we can share one.
Els
LOL I think that Kandace uses the same tone. As for the "great grandmother" - it takes one to know one.
Katherine
Sounds good!
Katherine

*That sounds interesting!*Well, it sounds not easy, you are QUITE right! LOL! When we shall describe something very difficult, we say: "It's Hebrew to me!"

*I have never heard about that, how is that?AUD ;-))
Aud Hahahahhahah when we want to describe something hard we say ' It sounds like Chineese ...... i will send you the copy ,
That is wonderful hahahahhh , but thinka bout all the babies who easily speak Hebrew hahhahah
Oh it goes like this you get a complete white graph , with Numbers on one side and letters on the others .. Definitions are given for in one line for a whole row , and yoiu have to work out where the black squares come 123456789 a b c d for example now deffinitins will say
OK I admit that I do it daily as it's in the local paper that i pick up on the way to work each day. I hav also got a couple of the books as I do enjoy them. I am actualy doing them right handed so that I don't miss my knitting and crocheting as much. Doing them right handed is a chalenge considering I'm a lefty.

Katherine, it comes in the International Express. I have no idea if you can find one, but maybe we can look at the internet and see if it is availble.
Els
Hmm, I just had a look but can't find anything.
Katherine
Here you are, Katherine!
Here's another type of puzzle that I became addicted to for a while. It says it also originated in Japan
Thanks, Aud.
Katherine
After our discussion the other day, I did a Google search and came up with this website.
Thanks, Janise. I have saved this site, too.
