JillyOkay Folks,
If you're stuck at home and want something to while away some time ..... get stuck into this.
Needs to be printed off and thought about. It prints out into Word Pad okay. Took me a week to complete .... but it kept my mind off other things and gave me a boost when I finally worked it all out.
I'll put up the answers in a week's time. (Or before if you're tearing your hair out!)

The rest should be possible for everyone ...
