Hi Jim welcome to the madness

Hello new people. Have fun but don't be afraid to ask for teeny hints, medium sized shoves or gargantuan sledgehammer jobs! :lol:

I'm a big fan of the sledgehammer! :D

(That's having it used on me, but I wouldn't mind having a go at hitting someone else!)

Kingsley, your wish can come true.

I need hit with a sledgehammer for the centre spread of Issue 2. You can be it when the time comes.

Why? I'm not even sure Gill managed to finish issue one, and she had the answers :wink: :lol:

As for the sledgehammer - the problem there is that you have to be able to lift it first, before you can use it on someone else!

Are you trying to imply that I'm weak and feeble? Don't bet on it, I have a mean left hook... :twisted:

Um, you're the one implying it, not me; don't you try passing off your comments as though they are mine. I've met your sort before :D

But not until you sent them to her for inclusion in Issue 2.

That is 100% true Cenwulf.

And whatever kind of loopy juice Scurra has had tonight I am NOT responsible for.

Pass it around wil you please :mrgreen:

Well, here I am at last! Sorry it has taken so long to get going.......
Some of you already know me from the Runes, and it is great to find some familiar faces (!!) here :D
I am also pleased to make the acquaintance of some of you DVP-ers whom I have heard so much about. You will soon discover my particular relationship with Scurra and Eirian (if not already!) but can assure you this is not particularly relevant to anything - only that there may be something in the genes that pre-disposes to problem-solving :roll:

Hi everyone!!

Sorry that I'm another one who has taken a ridiculously long time to get on board but here I am and I'm waving hello!!

I'm working away on a number of puzzlebrains puzzles - but they are certainly taxing my poor little brain, so no answers as yet!

Right, now where's that magazine gone...

Lucy xx
