I'm at 10... and the other 10 feel impossible!

KatBurglar · 16/11/2023 13:08

I got 11 fairly quickly and have totally stalled!

7 and having a pause to think

JassyRadlett · 16/11/2023 13:13

13 now. The lion will be the death of me.

WhatWouldHopperDo · 16/11/2023 13:13

7 - struggling but it always takes me a day or two!

KatBurglar · 16/11/2023 13:15

I am so sure the woman with the suitcase will turn out to be one I've read but I'm really scratching my head over that one and the lion most of all!

OK, the one on the Travel section - I hadn't heard of it (not a fan of the author, to be honest, uncultured swine that I am) but guessed based on the locations named.

I've got the first nine I pressed and was feeling smug but my winning streak has come to a screeching halt.

KatBurglar · 16/11/2023 13:58

I've done almost nothing for two hours and I'm at 14, but struggling!

KatBurglar · 16/11/2023 14:10
