8. It's gotta be the Mariana Trench wave


If you spell the words "absolutely nothing" backwards, you get "Gnihton yletulosba",
which ironically means absolutely nothing.

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.

flotsam, OB, manxman - a big thumbsup! thumbsup

Thanks Marian - they're fun to do. Biggest problem is judging how difficult I've made them. When you've got the answers in front of you, they're all easy!

I now use Mrs Worrier as a guinea-pig. If she can get 3 or 4, plus a couple of "I think I know that one - it'll come back to me later", I reckon that's about it lol

I would say the difficulty is just about right. And Mrs. Worrier sounds like a good gauge. smile
