Before the Summer?

I was just thinking that it would be nice to have some extra puzzles to work on while we’re all in lockdown.

But I appreciate that it might not be all that high on your list of priorities right now.

Yes, very busy with work now too. Maybe I'll have some more time in 1-2 months...

Good complaint to have in these uncertain times.

This was on the list for a long time.
(and thanks to user mikas for reminding me

)

Solutions to the 16x16 "extra large" puzzles in this book can now also be submitting for points (9).

Use puzzle codes b36xl1 to b36xl10.

I'll also send email to the accounts who have submitted solutions from this book,
and will update the book itself as well.

Excellent news! At least, I thought so, until I spend the best part of an hour looking for the book. It appears I may have dumped all my completed Calcudoku puzzle books as part of a clear out a while back.

I still have the latest book to finish but I wasn't pushing it as I thought I had time.

To Paul: It took me about 15 minutes to find the book. It Is going to rewire my brain.

To Patrick: Thank you. Thank you for this site, and the protection to give us. We know you work very hard on that. Thank you for the puzzles,
