Contempo: An Award-Winning Gift Shop in Stirling

Product Details

A crossword in which every answer is a polite way of saying old.

HAPPY and BIRTHDAY are already filled in, one running down the right-hand side and one along the bottom, so the grid greets them before they have picked up a pen. The rest of the squares are left empty, with six clues printed underneath.

Work through them and the joke arrives slowly: fossil, seasoned, medieval, old. Cream card, deep charcoal grid, bright orange envelope. Browse the rest of our greetings cards range, or find a present to go with it in our birthday gifts.

  • Playable crossword grid with six clues
  • Answers that all mean much the same thing
  • Bright orange envelope included
  • Dimensions: A6 - 10.5cm x 14.8cm
  • Blank inside for your own message

One for whoever does the paper's puzzle daily.
