Hi everyone,

I have not been on the forum that much for the last couple of days. And I have not caught up.  I will try to catch up tomorrow, otherwise it may carry over to the weekend.  I have checked all answers from page 811 - 813 and current but there are many from pages 805 to 810 that still need my attention.

 

The fantastic answerers from the pages I have checked are Radio, SamHenry, CPhill, DragonSlayer554, Alan, Anaya, Geno3141, Unknown, Bugzy28871 and Quinn.  Thank you all.

 

Radio left a puzzle on the forum that has not been solved yet.   Here it is.  Is someone going to give us the answer?
