A propos of nothing at all, my work did a Christmas prize crossword, with some winter festival themed clues, and I can see that one of them must be Diwali but I can't figure the clue out at all, which means I don't know whether they want the W spelling or the V spelling (non-intersecting square). Bah!
Anyway, it'd be unsporting to ask you guys, but still, I thought I'd complain here where people might understand my annoyance.
