I'm able to assemble strings of 13 cards but have great difficulty in getting them up to the top. They just won't enter that area. Is there a clever trick to that process? |

I think you have to have the top filled first. The red and the black. |

Audrey this is exactly the same situation as your recent post for Bedevilled. Drag and drop the completed columns onto the spaces in this picture.

Thanks for the help, Richard. I almost got one today, but, that stupid problem persists. The completed columns just won't enter the X spaces. I couldn't move the ones in your picture either. I'm going to set up that game and keep trying. |

Audrey,You have to drag the finished columns up and drop them onto the correct places. You can't just click on them. Put your cursor onto the KING of a finished set, h0ld down the left hand button and don't release it until you have the king above the correct empty cell. The two cells at the far right will only accept sets with black aces at the bottom. If you try to put a set with a red ace here it will be rejected. They will only go on the two cells with the red crosses on them. The picture shows what goes where. (It's not possible to move anything in the picture). |

Thanks, Richard. I was trying too hard. More delicacy of touch was required. Haven't won it yet. The poor old cerebrum is deteriorating. Wirra. Wirra! |

None of us are getting any brainier Audrey, nor more athletic, nor more streamlined.....sigh! At least we've not given up. |

Now I know why they call it EASY Diavolo! 100 and 101 were Marie Antoinette's favorite because they were a piece of cake! |

I think a high percentage of them are winnable Ken. Once you get your technique sorted out you are half way there. I tend to leave loads of cards in the tableau that could go onto the foundations. They are frequently useful in helping you exhaust the stock and the waste. |

Any coments on Susan Boyle's 2nd place finish? Did you like "Diversity"? |

I actually said to Liz after the semi finals that I wouldn't be surprised if Diversity won. They've been brilliant throughout. Susan sang well but seemed to be subdued, almost depressed. I think she's glad it's all over. She had the good grace to tell Diversity that they were the best act anyway. The final boasted six or seven acts who could have won it in an ordinary year. The depth of talent this year amazed everyone. You'll probably be able to see most of it on Youtube soon. |

I finally won an Easy Diavolo! A random number, too. Thanks for your help, Richard & Ken. |
