I've got the main paper but I think the supplements etc have been recycled.

Does it have the giant Christmas cryptic crossword in it? Annual tradition, you see, to try and complete it over the holiday period, and would be at a loss without it, especially with extra staying inside time anticipated.

Have just looked through last Sunday's paper, and there is only the usual 'General Knowledge Jumbo' crossword, no special Crimbo one

Susan has a copy, if you can find her that is.
