Just wondering, no passwords. That means I have to wait an extra 3 weeks for this one? UGH!!!
But I also want to know when I need to send money again because the home page only has the buy now option. Am I due for another payment?
Gill? You're the money bags on this team is that right?

Katsmom- First of all only Kingsley seems to have received her magazine so far

As they all went into the same post bag thats scary!! I think Scurra will hold onto the passwords until Tuesday when the rest should arrive.
I've written your postie a love letter on the envelope in the hope I don't have to cyber threaten him this time

Most subscriptions expire with the next issue. I will send reminders so you don't lose continuation unexpectedly.

Kingsley won a prize at the meet, which Gill kindly enclosed with her magazine. So not only do we have to watch her doing her puzzles, but nibbling chocolate too. I think the post office have treated hers as a parcel not a letter and it received special treatment.
(She has generously offered the chocolate round, and even photocopied page seven for me. -HER CHOICE NOT MINE

It's strange not to choose which puzzle to do first)

That's your fault, you said I could pick, so I picked one of the two you said you had an idea on how to do it. (If I'd been cunning I would have picked one that looked really hard

)

She hasn't given me any puzzles to do

, Not that I care

I am going to wait patiently until my issue arrives before I start and anyway, I'll have SUMS to keep me occupied for a week.

They all look hard!!

The only ones which looked do-able are either outside puzzles or I've tried them and they're not as do-able as they look. So far I've done half a puzzle and tried everything under the sun for the next stage!

I mean, I'm glad everyone is keen and all that, but the magazine shouldn't "officially" be out until Tuesday (being the first of September an' all.)
So don't worry - you'll get a password as usual so you check your answers and see the puzzles on-line.
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".

I only said I thought it would be Tuesday - I have no idea when Scurra plans on sending them out
Anyway, you should all be too busy on SUMS to worry about passwords
