Crossword Challenge
Now that the government guidelines are encouraging more physical exercise we thought you may also wish to exercise your minds by having a go at the crosswords published in some of our previous editions.
Look for the crossword symbol which indicate the editions that contain a crossword.
Win a FREE copy of a GA Guide of your choice!
We also have the solutions to the crossword GA7 but unfortunately not the clues! So we thought it might be fun to have a competition to suggest what the clues might have been. The winner will be the first person to send us a complete set of geologically themed clues – the more imaginative the better!
