You're not alone. I'm just weird and enjoy finding the patterns in those little squares.I'm not a maths dunce, by any means, but I just can't get my head around Sudoku

I always have a crossword book with me. Coffee and crosswords go togetherBretrick, I enjoy crosswords, yes. Because I started doing them when I was younger, my parents bought me a dictionary and a thesaurus in case I needed to reference. I've been grateful ever since. I love words.
hollydolly, I can't get my head around Sudoku either...
Are you a good dabbler? Are the crosswords enjoyable or frustrating?i dabble in crossword puzzles.
I have never heard of Cody Cross. I enjoy a hardcopy myself.I was going to start a thread asking the same question B! And use it as a segway to ask if anyone plays Cody Cross, one of my favorite games. It's a different kind of crossword puzzle. I've done other crosswords in the past but since playing CC, I haven't gone back to them. I remember doing the in the newspaper decades ago. While playing CC I sometimes have to refer to the "cheat" because there's no way anyone can guess all the answers. And you can't go to the next level without finishing a group of puzzles. I always feel smarter when I finish puzzles on my own. There are Here's a video about CC.
Thank you for the correction...I knew I spelled it wrong! So I've heard people say "seg-way" is "seque" pronounced that way? The dictionary says the Segway is "an invented word based on seque". If I thought I could stay upright on one of those things, I'd try it...they look like fun.

The NY Times got too expensive for me. Now I do the LA Times puzzle by way of the Washington Post which is free. I also do Wordle each day.Do you enjoy crossword puzzles?
Yes, yes I do.
The NY Times is my 'go to'
I love doing crosswords....Keeps the mind sharp.My Father was always doing the crossword in the papers and he was really good at it. He would usually be able to complete the whole crossword without referencing any dictionary, et al.
Somehow I started doing crosswords as well and have been doing them for more than 35 years.
My vocabulary is astronomical. If I hear or see a word I have not encountered before then I find out what it means. That is called learning.
I regularly buy a crossword book called, "Mister Wisdoms Whopper", it has 27,
400 word crosswords. I can complete these crosswords in less than an hour. Missing on average 10 words.
When completed, those that I did not know, I look up in the back of the book.
I was doing this one day in a cafe, and someone sitting beside me said, " That's cheating"
I looked at him and simply said, "If you do not know something, what do you do? You find out, yes? It is called learning, not cheating"
Unfortunately he took umbrage and got uppity.
Some people.
Whiles away a few hours on those slow days.I love doing crosswords....Keeps the mind sharp.
