Bad news for everyone else I mean. Thanks! I cant believe I've finally won something on here. You lot are all waaaaay better than me at solving the puzzles and riddles etc.

I'm sorry, I've been asked not to give the answer away without making you all work for it. :twisted:

I had two guesses at the numbers pic, my first one seemed too obvious after a bit of googling, but I figured it was worth a shot. My second one was a bit more cryptic but based on my first guess and the clue and I honestly thought that would be the right answer.

The first answer was right.

Just "say what you see".

(erin...It is nearly lunchtime I suppose)

Well, you can count me out, I have been here for far too long and still haven't found an Isis!


Ooh, can you actually get quailburgers? I guess you'd need about a dozen to make a good one. Hmm, food... burger... hmmmmmmmmmm

I had the correct answer too but you got your's in before me, pitty I can't reveal the answer but it was pretty easy tbh. Actually without giving too much away there is also one mistake in the whole thing;)

Congrats on the win.

So there is... Very well spotted indeed.

Lodgecrest. They are even, but that is a product of what they mean. They are not random numbers.

Oh dear I feel I ought to be able to get this. My answer was woefully simplistic :oops:

So now the website is wrong again - 'The first solution will ...' --> 'The first solution has ...'

How long will they keep us guessing and extracting the £1s with the prize already gone ...
