I really enjoyed the Christmas puzzles. Challenging. Thanks.
The 'very hard' daily puzzles seem to have got easier, though. Is it just me? |

Possibly..! but I have just tried keith's puzzle posted on 31 Dec. Two hours making some progress but now I'm stuck and I think I am going back to look at the discussion that follows.
Still learning! |

|

Hi SR,
You should know and apply the "Turbot fish" which is solving a lot more puzles than the Swordfish, Jellyfish and Squirmbag all together !!!
In this discussion forum you can find out about this technique. Just use the "Search" and choose the "Turbot" keyword.
I can also supply you some training examples, if you want.
see u, |

Hi, Sheila!
Sorry to be so slow responding to your request -- I've got plumbing problems in the bathroom upstairs. 
Anyway, I've posted an expanded description of the solution to Keith's puzzle right here. I've included something of an explanation of the jellyfish, and of the swordfish, which you may find helpful. dcb |
