Sue R Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I always find if you can't get them quickly, you don't get them! They sort of 'jump out at me', ( or not!) if you see what I mean Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belle06 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 i love anagrams, word searches and pathfinders pretty sad but my type of quiz plus television has been rubbish recently LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Did anyone get the little booklet in the Saturday Guardian recently.... about art.... In it was a bit about drawing at a distance. You tape a pencil or similar to the end of a length of pole, put the paper on the floor and then try drawing.... There was also a bit about charcoal. I know I've got some somewhere......

Beau Posted October 8, 2009 Author Share Posted October 8, 2009 Sounds interesting! My drawing is bad at the best of times without hindering me with a long pole though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam2368 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 That's mine in too. first competition I've entered in years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beau Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 Anita has very kindly pointed out that I made a mistake in number 13. If you submit an entry with the one 'n' in you won't be penalised since that was my fault. I've now edited it to correct the mistake.

Guest Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Hi, Can you just clarify, how many letters are in the answers for question 13? Sorry to be a nuisance but that's one I am struggling with and knowing the numbers might just help with the answer (well I can but hope!!!!!) Thanks Nicky Sussex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to be a nuisance but that's one I am struggling with and knowing the numbers might just help with the answer (well I can but hope!!!!!) Thanks Nicky Sussex Sorry Nicky, put the extra 'n' in but didn't adjust the numbers. In my defence I did it before I had even had a cup of coffee - anyone who knows me will know that I don't operate well without my first dose of caffeine. It should be correct now.

Guest Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Glad you have now been topped up with coffee!!!! My husband is exactly the same, without coffee it takes him twice as long to answer questions or to do anything in the morning.
