ok, so no-one has finished this yet and there are only 2 days to go... I can't believe none of you have solved it.

The designer of the puzzle has said 'my one and only clue is: it's not as abstract as you think'.

I know I wouldn't have a chance, but surely one of you can do it!

So, did you all have a look at the answers and think...huh? :lol: I know I did for most of them! Oh well, there goes my chance to become a spy... :lol:

Well I was moderately pleased that I solved a couple of the level 5 puzzles, but since I hadn't done any of level 4 that felt a bit wrong. :)
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
All of my puzzles are simple and obvious. For certain values of "simple" and "obvious".
