    I'll have a go at the library challenge later - just about to take kids out to a soft play centre so they'll be occupied while I catch up with my best long-term-but-no-longer-local friend. :) However, I think person 13 is viva herself.
    Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

    All answers correct so far except one. Person ten is not NDG because the law code is planning law... 345 however is criminal law. Lir the first one is supposed to be you!
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    629.2872 is repairing your own car. I thought it appropriate after the window problem. Sorry!

    No worries, here goes:

    You can move around this and get to most of the codes and even if you only get to the ballpark, you should be able to look the rest up or guess from the first part.
