done the maths ones. they're quite easy. although I understand how one of the answers was achieved I disagree with the maths used.

general knowledge now!

#9 - helps if you have photoshop although it's still difficult

timetrial
11-Feb-2005, 19:55
done the gen knowledge - that's the lot!!!!

only had to resort to google for one answer too!

off to rest my brain - been at this for almost 3 hours!!!!
