Scrabble Breaks and Crossword Breaks at the Green Park

Alan Sinclair and Wilma Warwick are two of the leading Scrabble players in Scotland. Both have been Scottish Champion, and have also represented Scotland in the World Championships. Alan was also a series champion on Channel 4's Countdown afternoon quiz programme.

THE 2010 SCRABBLE BREAK is from Sunday the 21st of February, until the morning of Thursday the 25th of February. Like the four day bridge break, Alan and Wilma's Scrabble break is both social and competitive. It is aimed at those who already have a basic understanding of the game, but who would like to improve. There will be morning tutorial sessions, followed by an opportunity to try out your newly acquired skills in competitive play in the evenings.

THE 2009 CRYPTIC CROSSWORD WEEKEND is from Friday the 11th of December, to mid-day Sunday the 13th of December. If you have trouble completing cryptic crosswords, or even starting them, then Alan and Wilma's short break will help to put you on the right track. They will show you how you can learn to recognise the various types of clues, and how they lead to those elusive answers. With plenty of examples from published crosswords, the course will set you on your way to the satisfaction which comes with filling in that final answer!
