Re: The Barbie Crossword. Issue 1.
Right. I've given in
Can only get 15 answers. It's too hard when you can't write in the boxes. I tried to do it on paper but kept messing up.
I'm gonna sulk now cos I hate not being able to finish them

3) Buttockup with 12/35

I saw that, very original
I like the crossword idea, but I'm not very good at cryptic ones.
