5yo arrived 30 minutes ago and is doing a non-stop roleplay monologue where she is a poor orphan child whose parents and grandma have died and she has been selling a basket of stuff on the streets with only a dog and cat for company, oddly disconcerting after not seeing her for 48 hours

Is there a crossword person in your life? Would you like to get them a unique gift? PERHAPS FOR CHRISTMAS?
Well maybe a bespoke quiz or cryptic crossword would fit the bill, on any theme, of any size, by the author of [counts on fingers] more than 900 published crosswords, i.e. Me. Give me a shout!
