In reply to stp:
once i had the 6 letters and one letter I thought of something (newsworthy) on the Ben and work backwards like i did,
then get confused about egypt/greek I did get a greek on the Ben but didnt fit. hence my ? to Nat earlier.
I presumed the x-word pattern was unrealiabe so I am not sure which ones i got wrong on the x-word, only 1 i thought i didnt know.
pix were tough couple no idea, and quite a few guesses for me. Anagrams was ok but slow
dont know which ones i got wrong didnt write em down !
