Apterous may be down, but at least there's an episode to watch.

QANAT in R1.

ANTIC as the standard method solve in round 1.

ATAXIC in R1
Alt 1st numbers (25+4)x(7-3)x6

Alt 2nd numbers (75+7)x5x3/2

And 3rd numbers 25x9+7+7 - once again a tidier method is to be seen

A bit showboaty dividing by 2 at the end. It's 41×15.

Being picky again. Wasn't there only one 7? I did it like that but with 2×7.

Yes Gavin - that's what I did, it was easier to type in the division at the end than bracketing it to show it after the addition.

Susie tells us that "normal" comes from a Latin word for a carpenter's square. What she didn't mention is the still-used mathematical sense of a line perpendicular to a curve or a surface, which obviously comes from this. (There are other mathematical senses of the word, but that's an aside.)
