Hi jodder
Many thanks for your help(& perseverance)
You wouldn't believe that I actually passed GCE Maths-mind you it was 1959 and there were three seperate exams as I recall (Arithmetic,Algebra and Geometry & Trigonometry?)
spursfan
Yeah well done jodder... Had me stumped!!!
You did yours the same time as i did!! Believe me the syllabus then is very similar to A level now so we did o.k.
spursfan - congratulations on being given the answers to these questions. It's just a shame that you can't heed the words of the quiz setter and NOT ask for answers on here. It really does ruin the quiz when answers are freely given away in the public domain.
Hi boysinblue68. Thought you'd retired. I knew someone would cheat 10? days before the closing date of 24th October. Everyone can copy these answers now and have LESS chance of winning. Me included.
