Two new words: distrait (“dih-stray”): withdrawn in attention, or distracted. hortative (“HOR-tut-tihv”): giving exhortation, or advisory. I get words in a daily mailout from Merriam-Webster. They have word games too!

‘peasy enigma this week – 50 mins to do, of which 35 were looking at it from every possible angle because it can’t be that easy (either it is, or I’ve got it wrong.) Might just be easy compared to last week’s tho.

New word – “chthonic” (THAH-nik). Means of or relating to the underworld. This week’s Enigma is also a bit tricky – took me 2 Hrs+ (with a calculator!)

I won an Enigma!(1113: TEN+TEN=TWENTY) I actually found out last Saturday, but waited to see it in print in case someone was playing a cruel joke… 🙂

Got my auto site builder program running – any updates are now automatically propogated through the pages, and ‘date updated’ on my main homepage is set. Will post the source & executable soon.

Apologies for the lack of service yesterday – I accidently deleted this file!

Finished this weeks N.S. Enigma in 60 mins – 10 getting it to eight possibilites, and 50 working out which were &%#!&* prime 🙂

Added a new background to these pages – d’ya like? Also decided to keep a mini-diary on here.
