Hello Ixion
This has me intrigued! only answer I can see at the minute is No 2, so I've printed it off and will have a look over the weekend.
Cheers

Thanks Ixion. 2 & 3 leapt out at me, some are lurking in the recesses of my brain but some are eluding me completely at the moment.

2,3 and 5 came quite quickly and I've got a possibility for 1. The other two - and no 7 - have got me stumped. I'll persevere.

Quick work Joan - (7)is fairly abstruse as it should be the last one solved..glad it's worked out that way.

I really enjoyed tackling this, so didn't want to give my answers in case it spoiled anyone else's pleasure. (And it'd be frustrating if someone was able to supply no 7 from my solutions before I get it myself!)
