Hello James 🤗- I see that you are back in India settling into study mode but missing your family. I'm sure you'll be fine soon & your dear sisters here will make sure of that to fill any void of the ones back home.

Thanks for your lovely words above on my MIL & glad you took the message from her life.

You had mentioned your Mom would worry for your life. That's a mother's (parents) prerogative to worry about her kids regardless of how old they are and sons are special for their Mom's. 😉

Ok finally here's the Caligraphy from P'amma who had presented me the original, that I want to share with you & Wishu and others who joined in recently. It's from the Book of Kells & P'amma had given the details of it on the original post back in Oct '17. Some of her other Caligraphy works are also in that page, 😊

The letters XPI stand for CHI RHO IOTA

No.. that is what I realised... it is about constantly practising and keeping in touch with the subject.. older one is currently reading 'logical reasoning' etc in for preparation for secondary school entrance exams... (Grammar school exams).. those questions are not too different from Rekha's puzzle (many are even tougher ) second one is aware of it too as he sees his brother prepare.. so I guess, they sorta found this easy to solve👍🏼

1 year later might be a different story! 😆

I've given this puzzle to my kiddos now, to work out... let's see how they fare!

Update Rekha -

Vidhur first came up with 60.

When I asked him to double-check last step (got everything else correct), immediately got 15...

Was happy!

Younger one doesn't know the BODMAS rule yet... but... he gave me this

Very interesting puzzle... 👍🏼

Yes... I'm also doing a Sandy these days... spot on, Cookie!

😆 that's what it was about - Wishu and Rekha!
