It’s a small thing I know, but I think one of the great glories of Britain is Araucaria’s alphabetical crosswords.

Perhaps a half dozen times a year, the greatest of Guardian crossword setters provides an extra dose of ingenuity. Solvers have to figure out the answers to clues and fit them, jigsaw puzzle style, into the grid. The one thing helping the solver is that Araucaria provides the first letter of each answer (letters A to Z, hence the name).

If you like this sort of thing — and I used to eagerly open my Saturday Guardian in the hope that this week would be the alphabetical — you won’t need to look up araucaria.
