I played Ancient Cards yesterday several times. I don't know what was up, but the cards turned over so slowly that I didn't even manage to turn of 3/4 of the pack before the time ran out - no chance of matching all the pairs! I even plugged my laptop direct;y into the internet hub, in case it was a weak wifi signal. Seems better tonight - finished with the typical 1s to go. There should be at least 10s more on that game.

Yes, I know the lantern turns 'em all over for a few seconds, but that doesn't help me. I do better playing it old school, as remembering where I've seen something is easier. Just the way my odd-ball brain is wired :o)

I've just got into the Mine - how the **** are you supposed to spot the cave paintings!! Took me seveal goes to see them with the glass :o).  Not unlocked Candy World yet...and chocolate isn't candy...candy is sugared things: candied fruit/candied peel. Sweets is sweets and chocolate is chocolate.  LOL I love regional differences :oD.  I was working up north, with a packet of sweets on my desk when one of my colleagues asked if he could have a toffee.  I said, "I'm sorry, I haven't got any"  He pointed to the bag and asked, "Well what are those?", obviously put out by my (apparant) unwillingness to share.  Isaid, "They're mints, not toffees, would you like one?" After some huffing and puffing on his part and some confusion on mine, I realised that locally "toffees" meant any sort of sweets, whereas where I come from, toffees are the chewy things related to caramels and fudge specifically.  Ooops, a bit OT...

I'd like more time on all the games - and for the Treasure Box to actually drop the colours you're looking for in the colour match mode! Fed up of getting 30s from the end to see onlt 4 yellows on the board, nowhere near one another. Similarly in the Haunted lights, I've cleared swatches of non-scoring colours onlt to have more of them drop in and none of the scoring colours. It's as if they don't want us to complete the challenges...LOL
