OK, so I'm not lonely with my magazine. I meant friendless or confused about how many people I don't know there are on here.

Thanks for the welcome!

I only ordered the magazine on Sunday, and it's just arrived, how's that for service! :D

My Runes journey came to an elongated pause when I got to page 26, so I think I'll give this some time now before I go back to it. :)

Exactly my thoughts... except I'm stuck on page 26. Fernando thinks I've given up completely, but I'm just giving it a rest for the moment.

Hello to you, too. Just shout out (but not to me :roll: ) if you need a hand. Most of us are quite harmless and friendly - though some of us quicker on the uptake than others. Those that don't have cauliflower brains, for example

hello Maisie, welcome. Do yell if you want a nudge. Mutual help seems to be the best way to solve a lot of these puzzles. Except for the impossible ones. ;)

Yup, I'd agree with that. Except that there are no impossible ones. Don't believe anyone who tells you otherwise :D

Hello everyone, again. Guess who? Ha! :D

I just happened to wander into DVP tonight and was steered here. Good job Scurra. Hmmm? I wonder what this is all about though? If DVP and The Runes was anything to go by I'll be tapping most of you for big nudges very soon indeed.

Nice to see you all again.

Cheers. BB.
