Hey @Faith-and-Hope & @Zoe7 - you have inspired a new space!
I love that you guys are doing the crossword together - so fun!
I thought we could start up a quizes, crosswords and other fun brain teasers thread for people to come and play and take their mind off everything - what do you think?
Please pull up a seat with your coffee in tow and bring your crossword into here 
I have been impressed with your answers @Zoe7!!

I see what's happening here. This thread LOOKS like it is a fun game to play, but really it's a strategy for getting impatient and highly competitive turtles to practice their somewhat lacking waiting skills. {Pokes @Former-Member to try and get her to speed up with the answers}.

Sorry for making you wait @Phoenix_Rising! Patience is not my strong suit either hahaha
'Face the other way' looks like an awesome fit.
It does however mean that 3 down could then be edits @CheerBear and places 4 down as now starting with H @Former-Member...
4. DOWN One of the layers of which a show heel is made (7) H _ _ _ _ _ _
5. DOWN A source of light (3,4) now starting with O_ _ _ _ _ _
9. ACROSS Delicate and light (8) _ T _ I _ _ _ _
11. ACROSS A convinient substitute for cash or cheque (6,4) _ R _ S _ _ _ _ _ _
