Think he went round the houses with a couple of them- particularly the 160 sum I recall!. I do feel as if his numbers do need work though if he is to advance. He should have really got within at least 10 points of the first sum....

Good play by Jacob today, well done to him on a top score. Wendy had some good words, but numbers were a real weak point and not getting 160 is bad standard imo....
My scores:
Me:110-76 (Jacob) (He got UNLOADS to my SANDAL in what was a bit of a tricky selection, but something I should have got nevertheless).
Me:116-19 (Wendy)

Seeing as there's some trend for displaying alt methods for the final numbers, here's mine : ((25+9) x 10) -8)
