    Hello Peoples,

    Does anyone know where one could find the daily Irish Times Crossword with out having to buy the paper or suscribe to them.

    I love doing the simplex one but couldn't be arsed buying it every day.

    Something to do in work.

    Thank you in advance.

    I suppose someone has to mention that you shouldn't be a leech, and I suppose that since I'm the first person to reply then it's me.

    Don't be such a leech! Either buy the paper each day, get an online subscription or work for a company that has one.

    I suppose you're right Silent Bob.

    What a waste of a post. So maybe I should just go and waste €1.50 every day to do a crosswrord that's only 4"x4" in a full newspaper.

    Actually feck it, you're dead right, i'll just change jobs. Sure that would be much easier than just asking people if they knew of any sites that featured it.

    Good man, you've sorted out my question in one foul swoop.#

    Dick.

    Don't think its available online, tho I'm sure if you googled, you'd find some alternative...
    You can get a book of a few hundred of them tho (try any bookshop), and it means you don't have to wait a whole day for the next one =)

    Heh, u called him a leech and his name is Swampy :D

    Yeh, get a subscription or if u work near a college, the campus shop sell papers about half price, sometimes give them out free at the begining of the year too.

    Rather than buy the paper you could use the faxback service and some tippex...

    Borrow the paper and photocopy the crossword. Ideally before anybody else completes it....

    fish yesterdays paper out of the bin, not everyone does their crosswords and you just might get lucky.

    At last some decent suggestions.

    Thanks ladys and jellybeans.

    Being friday, the office buy the paper for the business section, so it's time for some swift photocopying.

    Must get my hands on one of those books though. Great idea.

    Thank you people.

    the irish time's crossword is on www.ireland.com everyday but you do need to subscribe to it for like 7euro a week/month or summat
    or you can be sneaky and cheap use someone elses password (i find it much cheaper)
    i know this doesn't actually help you...... i'm just gloating
    soz

    Oh dear, how remiss of me to actually suggest that you should PAY for goods and services:rolleyes:

    there's crosswords at www.pigsback.ie website which is free. Unfortunately they are not quite as challenging as the irish times ones.
