I used to work on the bar at Linacre during lunchtimes, and with the regulars there tried to do the Times easy crossword. We never, ever finished it, which is quite embarrassing for four or five graduate students. In fact, our general knowledge en masse was so appalling that we needed to go and ask a botanist or a biologist whenever we needed to know about a plant.
So - almost finishing the crossword all by yourself is an impressive achievement!!
