  1. There appears to be some errors with the Round About puzzle.
    #4 The solution states ‘MINERAL’, which is only seven letters (all solutions must be eight letters). Assuming it’s meant to be ‘MINERALS’, the letters around #4 have an extra ‘A’, an unnecessary ‘G’, and are missing an ‘E’.

    #9 has an extra ‘T’ and is missing a ‘J’.
