Fun puzzle!

Not difficult to solve

Sorry Quizzy, but that was easy. But good one for people who have just started PuzzGrid.

Barely worth the corkage fee.

It is fine to have an easy grid as Think!!! says. My suggestion is that it would be better not to have one group stand out too obviously as the French words do here. The best line is the fire one which is at a good level for new gridders but not too easy.

"tall" and "elevate" aren't synonyms for height - one is a measure of height, the other the action of lifting. Tallness and elevation would be synonyms in this case. In addition, what kind of accommodation is "farme"? Having lived for 9 years in France I had never come across this word - did you mean "ferme" - which is French for farm?
