Hi all,

I will wait with excited breath as to which word comes next...as a previous word (later) and the latest word (alter) are anagrams of each other...so, let's see who can find a word without an E (or an R) for that matter (but keeping L, A and T) !!

I owe my love of crosswords and Scrabble to my mother, although I went on to be maths and science oriented at school and beyond. But, as an aside, here's one for you Tim, with thanks to GCHQ! If it catches on we can start another thread :D

Which is the odd group out, and why: (4 8 11 13 ), (9 18 7 2 ), (16 13 1 19 8 ), (20 18 9 7 8 ), (4 12 7 15 9 8 ), (7 1 15 20 8 19), (10 1 5 14 8 18 ), (13 1 16 7 11 17 ), (16 1 9 19 11 20 ), (7 3 18 12 6 1 9 )

Now, where were we .... :)

Hi,

mmmmmmm...that's got the old brain cells working.

Nothing immediate springs to mind, although these numbers do look a bit like those found on a dart board ;-)

Am I getting warm? Or ice cold in Alex ?
