Welcome one and all to the International Women's Week Crossword.

 

Everyone Welcome

 

I had planned on making a few changes to this crossword as I made a few mistakes in development but as I am handicapped without the internet at home, we will have to make do.

 

I apologise for this poorly designed format.

 

And an extra clue on 8 across (because I was a stupid male) there is a space between the two words, so feel free to leave a letter blank.

 

How to Play:

 

PM me your answers, it as simple as that and I'll announce the winners as they come in. I/We planned to have a sig made by the end of the event for the winners.

[Mystica]

I have a feeling im going to learn something here

[Tynaal Consen]

Same here! Hahaha

[poetstorm]

Same here. ^^

 

Already stumped on 1-across. Now I have something to play with on my lunch hour. :D

[Turin Turambar]

two straight lines? grrrrrrrr

[Tynaal Consen]

I don't want to resort to googling things!!!

[Senexx]

I probably should have been more specific with two straight lines so I'll add

 

Two straight lines of twelve (as the hint)

 

And PoetStorm - you'll kick yourself when you get 1. across. I was going to give a hint but that'd make it too easy.

[Senexx]

And we have our first winner.

I'm just deciding whether to announce whom now or whether to announce all the winners collectively at the end.

[Mystica]

It's me, isn't it? I knew it! *preens* Basel, move over!

[Senexx]

And there is another winner. Is it you?
