Oh you too, Though I was the only one to work on that principle, well it works with the housework.

Join the club. Apparently dust doesn't gather anymore if left for 6 months, so I am trying this experiment at the moment :)

I have the policy that anyone is allowed to write in the dust - what is not allowed is putting the date!

I'm periodically looking at this and then looking away, tripping over my dust, looking away from that too and then going back to the puzzle. It's making me rather depressed. :lol:

I'm very pleased for you. I think I might have one. But I'm not too happy even with that one.

I think I have done line 2, but thats all and that could be totally rubbish. If anyone else has this line do you want to check answers to see if we are on same wavelengths.

I think I may have lines 1 to 3 and 6 plus some other odd words but having trouble with the 4th line. Surely Puzzlebrains is the cool website but I can't make anything from it. :?
