Note: file name is irrelevant to solving. I am sorry about the quality of some of the pictures, if you are having trouble, ask and I will clarify what they are of!

A few hints.
1. Pink and green pictures are connected
2. Pink squares will reveal a number when connected to their green square correctly.
3. Use numbers given (pink) and found by solving the sudoku (green) as an index into the relevant part.

If anyone is struggling to get started on this I would suggest Googing the single word which is represented by the picture on the third row, second column. The top hit is helpful!

If you are still stuck, that cell would go alongside the 3 letter word represented by the picture in the 5th row,7th column to give you your number.

Well done Scurra!
Still pondering this, particularly the right hand clues.

Does this mean that the clue joins the bottom clue (Eh that's close) or do they all move up a place?

But then, maybe this is an irrelevant question if I have misunderstood what I will need to do! :lol:

Oh, they all shuffle up and fill the gap. But remember this is just for helping you get the right answers. They need to be in that original position to join up correctly!

And , having looked again, I see I have made other ordering errors! :oops:

Order (to help with solving only!)should be

A space...
I see, chuck...
Bonjour...
Very nearly openness...
Dearest Mr Blair
E g Dylon...
Female sheep...
Black sweet
Old near...
Pinch garden tool...
Nature spirit...
Eh? That close...
Thou groom ...

Sorry about that.
