Word Searches

Does anyone else enjoy these?

I started doing some because my hands were hurting from doing too much knitting and crochet and was getting bored.

I'm getting addicted!
Some are really easy, I find those with familiar words are quick to do, but those with words I've never come across before are really quite frustrating sometimes.

I have a system of looking for the least used letter in the word such as v or z that makes it easier.

I try not to cheat but sometimes one word just can't be found!

Serious stuff this wordsearch!

Re: Word Searches

Addictive aren't they ... I was mad about them a few years ago and the time certainly flies when you're sat there on a dedicated search.

Re: Word Searches

I don't do word searches but I love to play word games like words with friends and scrabble.

Re: Word Searches

I always pack a word search book ... or two, when we go away on holiday

I like most word games including Scrabble and crosswords.

Re: Word Searches

sorry I can't find the thread or who posted it but someone mentioned how they liked to play word searches so I thought they might like this.

Re: Word Searches

I haven’t done a Word Search for ages. Maybe, that’s because l am ploughing my way through a Crossword Puzzle book.

I shall have to look out for some Word Searches.

Re: Word Searches

I only occasionaly do word searches, mostly from my gardening mag.
I tend to do more crosswords, I like those.

Re: Word Searches

I do crosswords, mainly the cryptic variety. I print off some from the Grauniad's website (crap paper, good cryptic crosswords) and have also got a couple of The Times' cryptic crossword books.

Also addicted to Sudoku on my phone and tablet.
