highlandcityfan Posted May 19, 2020 Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 Good afternoon all, I am currently living in Gdańsk, Poland and cannot travel home currently for obvious reasons. Feeling a bit homesick, I made this quiz for my folks for a bit of fun, and thought that the good people of OTIB might appreciate it too. I am definitely not a cryptic crossword pro or anything, so some of the clues might be a bit obscure!! But I do hope that it can provide you all with some good fun. I have tried to upload it as a pdf but can't, so I am just doing a copy and paste. I will draw up an answer sheet this afternoon and can provide this by message if anyone wants it. Also, if you want it to share with family, I don't mind providing it as a pdf by message (if that's possible). If not, feel free to copy and paste! All answers are players names, past and present. Their initials are provided. I do hope that this can provide some decent entertainment in these strange and challenging times.
