Yeah, I tried to get this one harder than the last, but I might have gone too far overall.

I kept making errors. Made a spreadsheet in the end. Just hopefully my Excel skills were up to scratch...

Cheers, hippyman for the answers :)

And yeah, I'm thinking of a round system next time too, and a picture one makes sense. Watch this space! :D

Anyways, overall, you got 15/20! Which puts you straight up to 1st place.

Also, I have a confession, sorry Nin, but I've actually marked yours slightly wrong, and you only got 13/20 :(
