Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
You think you've done it and then in the back of your mind you just know you haven't. It's great because you should have had some good puzzling by now and then it all starts again! My copy of "Lotus" arrived today. I think I'm at the stage you describe :D Edit : Oh wow :o Now I know why i...
