Gift Testimonials

Much of my motivation for writing personalised puzzles comes from the delightful feedback I get from my customers.  Here are just some examples of what they say:

Feedback on crossword for a daughter’s Birthday (Jan 2020)

Dear Tim
Thank you so much – all received and printed out perfectly!
I definitely will share feedback with you once Grace has had the chance to solve the crossword – we have a party this weekend for her birthday with her friends and my intention is to present her with the framed crossword, then to have printed copies and try and get all her friends to solve it too!
It has been a great pleasure corresponding with you on this, and I will definitely recommend you to friends in future – thank you so much for your hard work on Grace’s crossword.
Very best wishes

Feedback on crossword for Parents’ 50th anniversary (July 2019)

Dear Tim,

You really are a wonder. Thank you. All received safely, just what I was expecting, and I am SO pleased with the result. You made it a very simple and enjoyable process. I know they will love it but I will, of course, share their feedback with you after the grand presentation in early October. And I think it just has to be a golden frame!

I won’t hesitate to recommend you and to spread the word.

Thank you so much.

With all good wishes,

Jo (July 2019)


Feedback on crosswords for my Wife’s and my Mum’s Birthday presents (Apr 2019)

 Feedback on my cryptic crossword for a Dad’s Birthday present (Oct 2018)

We all loved looking through the crossword thanks!

Feedback wise I was very impressed with the product idea. And the final item was perfect for us as could be delivered via email quickly and we could do with it what we wanted. You obviously have a lot of skill in putting together crosswords and took the time to get all the right information so you could create something with just the right level of personal info, difficulty and style – plus humour!

Thank you for working so hard on it and doing it in such short time scale. It showed how much you care about each one.

I will happily recommend you to anyone interested – I think it is a lovely unique present. If you don’t have one already then a Facebook page could be a great way to advertise, especially in the run up to Christmas!

Thanks once again, Bryony (Oct 2018)

 Feedback on my cryptic crossword for a Silver Wedding (Aug 2017)

Dear Tim,

What a super piece of work! I am thrilled at what you have managed to reference and include.

I certainly can’t fault it and have reread it a number a number of times, just out of sheer pleasure. The solutions are quite as interesting as the clues, so it’s lovely to have those and I do recognise the effort on all fronts that have gone into this.

Dear Tim,

They are saved safely and I’ll try not to give them to him early.  I’m sure
he’ll be delighted with his totally unique present and I will tell everyone
where I got them.

I might be tempted to do one for Christmas if I’m stuck for a present!

All the best and thank you very much.
