      Bravo! 1D and 7D are ridiculously clever. I was very pleased to solve those. I'd also like to praise 3D and 4D... Wait actually the whole puzzle was just a delight :) thanks Bob!

          Many thanks! I didn't find it tough, I found it almost impenetrable. Sorry, but not my type of puzzle - far too clever for me.
