6 Down in the concise is probably "mole", as in a birthmark.

17 Down, the garden tool, "fork".

@wtg said in Crossword puzzles:

Have you ever seen a patternless crossword puzzle? All white squares. No numbers in the puzzle. You have to figure out where the words start/end and fill in the black squares...

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@AndyD so maybe the general knowledge one is closest to US crosswords?

8 across in concise, "racy"

[Bernard]

In concise, I think 17 down is "rake" and 18 across is "mass"

[Bernard]

Also in concise, I think 13 down is "cravat" and 19 across is "reaction"

[wtg]

15 down - transit?

[wtg]

20 across - welt

[Bernard]

Jumbo General Knowledge, 48 across, I think "honeybee"

This one should be called trivia. I'm not good at trivia.

Here are another two variations, same weekend 8 page pullout

I feel this latter is closest to yours in that any answer is an aid to multiple other clues.

This, (along with picwits from the Daily Mail) is my favourite puzzle, quite
do-able; I've left the final answer for... you
