As everyone knows, us d'regs can be pretty cryptic at times. The following is a code I've devised to communicate among non-Morporkians. It's all about our beautiful city of Djelibeybi.
The following cryptic "crossword" can be done without actually having a grid. A grid will provide a few more clues. One would need a grid labeled across the top from A to V (inclusive) and from 1 to 13 down the edge. You can use an excel -ent spread -ing sheet if you'd like. A1-A7 means fill in the spreadsheet/grid from A1-A7, one letter per box. Total length of word is shown at the end in square brackets.
Across:
N1-U1: Almost a fire in our midst.
E5-J5: Coffin Henry first has to pay.
Q5-V5: Keep heart else flee in night.
A7-E7: T's a morsel left after a meal.
M7-Q7: Sweet treats are missing.
F8-O8: Witch's floater has a nose?!
I12-O12: Currently favours women.
Down:
E5-E7: Djelian furballs of death.
F8-F10: I don't care enough to give you one.
G7-G8: Church in the middle of a city!
I4-I8: Lemon shakes for all.
M7-M13: Can't decide how to travel.
N1-N8: Fizzy drink and tea in the palace.
O7-O10: A fortune of Juleps.
Q4-Q10: Hat is missing milk's final additive.
