Stuck on a Crossword Clue for ‘Young Bloke’? See the Answer Here!

Tom was a puzzle enthusiast who loved trying his hand at crossword puzzles. One afternoon, he was stuck on a particular clue – ‘Young bloke‘. He thought to himself, “Who could this be? Maybe a teenager or a young adult?” He tried entering different answers such as TEEN and YOUTH, but nothing seemed to fit.

As he sat there, scratching his head, he heard a knock on the door. Curious, he got up to see who it was and was surprised to find a little boy standing outside. The boy looked up at Tom with big, bright eyes and said, “Hi, mister! My name’s Jimmy. Can I play with your dog?”

Tom smiled at the boy and replied, “Sure, little LAD, you can play with my dog. But how did you know his name is Lad?”

The little boy giggled and pointed to a sign on the gate that read “Beware of Dog. His name is Lad.” Tom felt a bit embarrassed but was grateful to the little boy for solving his crossword puzzle. From that day on, he always remembered that LAD was another word for a young bloke, thanks to the little boy who helped him out.
