I assume that you are playing the Kings only option for your Sea Towers games. # 13 is winnable with this option. For the record, 89% of Sea Towers are solvable with Kings only, 98% are solvable with the any card option.

I did it by myself and its always the same: when you did it, it seems so easy, that you wonder, why it took so long. |

Well done Trisha. I've been out for hours and I came back and won the game quite quickly, after toiling at it previously. I wonder if it's fair on others competing in the league that Markus is in if we post solutions though.
Opinions from a few others would be appreciated. |

Richard, speaking of squirrely, while I was posting this I heard something rattling around in my kitchen, and I looked up above my stove and there's a squirrel in my cupboard. Any suggestions on how to remove it? (And don't say go up a tree and act like a nut!) |

It couldn't have been very good cake if you brought it up. Did it kill the squirrel? Or did it say "Not tonight"? |

That's a phrase I never thought I'd hear Mike say, "Enough cake"! Anyway there is no proof that Marie Antoinette ever uttered the XXXX quotation. I think it was probably Robert Burns, and he'd said "Let them eat cack", (because they'd already eaten all the XXXX). |

Someday I will tell you about one of my experiences in the Army. My "friends" entered me in a pie eating contest. I never met a chocolate cake I didn't like. Ok. Now enough cake.  |

How about the traditional Scottish cake....."Black Bun"?. You have to be careful how you type that. |

Since this is the non sequitur thread, let me post my query here. I watched this British movie last night, Cashback (good movie but a little bizarre), and when two people met they said what sounds like "watcher". I assume it is some sort of British greeting, but are they really saying "watcher" and how did this greeting come about? |
