If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Didn't know Alan was a sudoku master. Does that mean, Alan, that you are comfortable with swordfishes, XYZ wings, unique rectangles and so forth? Are you a mensa sudoku master? Sounds like we could have some fun providing each other with clues late at night when we're stuck.

Ah well, what I mostly meant was that I am a beginner novice and newly recruited student sudokuer...lol, and math has never been my strong suit! And he does them using a PEN for heaven's sake... a pen!

oy , tha's nowt wront wit pen lass, just have to ensure that you get right number in right box, which of course is the slight difficulty with soduko.... anyway what would you use........ahh being an artist then I guess it would be a crayon oe a number 4 lining brush or a fitch......and you were rather excellent at sudokuering as I recall. you opened the book correctly and were really quite good once I had turned the book the right way around for you and told you which end of the pencil had the point on it.. you seemed not to understand thought that No, the number 13 doesn't actually fit in any of the puzzles, even in the whole of the book..........lol
And wendy as for MENSA, yes I am a member
Oh for those who may not be aware, Mensa is a collection of goody goodies, the acronym means
ME No Sense Atall

well, it may be 'le crayon graphite' en Francais, true, but is a simple drawing pencil to me (a Staedtler HB is very nice!) Pens are intimidating but the humble pencil has multiple uses.
And I did not put a 13 anywhere..! That is an outright fib!
lol

Alan - here's a link that you may enjoy that provides great explanations of some of the advanced sudoku techniques and gives you the opportunity to try them out: http://www.scanraid.com/sudoku.htm?bd=90...731200003090004My favourite sudoku books, for those who have begun to get bored by regular "difficult" sudoku, are the Mensa Absolutely Nasty Sudoku, by Frank Longo. There are four levels. The first two are pretty straightforward, requiring only basic skills. But levels three and four use the advanced techniques that you can learn about from the link above. Those are challenging enough to make me forget pain.

Let's see, an outrageous Alan tale.. oh I know a few! One I can share from our recent kicker dinner... after fully captivating our waitress's attention, he went on in his usual charming way and with a tone of genuine sincerity, to request her hand in marriage! I am still a bit surprised that she didn't instantly accept his offer! lol

errr well errrr..............I think the most stunning thing about that tiny incident (which is greatly exaggerated I must say) is that
she refused!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dumbfounded was I.......

Not a word exaggerated! And, as I recall it, she didn't actually refuse, did she Alan.
