Hi all, after talking with Lucky_Phill, I thought it might be interesting if I knocked up a crossword puzzle for the site.
If people do find it usefull, every so often I will knock out another one.
Hopefully I got the spelling right or it might make it a bit tough. Next time I will do a spell check.
The answers to the crossword can be found either in the Qld Rec Boating Safety Handbook, or by a little bit of comon sense.
I have also tried to make it reasonably easy, but if my phraseology is not clear enough I will hopefully improve as I go on.
You will need to print it out and it is saved as a *.jpg file. If this doesnt print clear enough I will re-post it as an Adobe Acrobat *.pdf.
Kind Regards
Lloyd

Ha ha ha, you are as sharp as a knife Gazza, like you say to much computer or a little bit of dislexia there.
Yea, 17 across, I had a chuckle when I wrote that one and my missus did mention something about a Nigerian Gymnast standing on his head. ;)
Cheers mate, pleased you liked it.

Try another one just to keep it on the front page.... what I really am wanting to know if this is going to be used by more than a handfull of people as it is taking me a fair bit of time. If it is I will keep doing it if it is going to be of some benefit.

This one is to do weather, or the results of the weather.
It is certainly a lot harder than the last one, so I will post the answers in here later in the week. Feel free to pm me if you are struggling... All answers can be found on the B.O.M site http://www.bom.gov.au/
Cheers Lloyd
