    Fred, didn't have time to make it interactive. Just print out. BTW, it's a bit of a payback (just kidding) for the several hours I spent/wasted on Zahada. Made level 50 and have managed to stay away from it since.......

    Guess best way to submit answers is reply against these numbers?

    7 minutes to post a dupe? You must be on a REALLY slow connection, madmix!
