share in my pain

Does anyone have any clues for this puzzle. It has been driving me mad since before raisin weekend!

Well, the answer is the name of a disease, if that's any help. You will get the first three letters of it by solving the grid in part A, and the line marked A is what you need. You'll find a pattern of letters in the grid, which should be obvious after you've solved the first couple of answers...


Thank you - got it right away!

I'm now stuck on 3.14, it's another horrible maths type one. I don't much like puzzle donkey's brand of maths!

I don't suppose you ever figured out the method behind this one? Personally, I don't much like any brand of maths which is why I seem to get stuck on these ones every time...

Why when you add up the possible percentages in the ingredients are they above 100? and how can this be so difficult, when according to the forum only 2 steps are required?

Can anyone help with this evil maths one? I have the idea, but not the figures to use in it.

I must confess that I cheated on this one and got the answer from someone else...I can give it to you if you want...although some people might not welcome down right cheating on these boards!

You're looking for a word which could go on the end of 1, 2, 4 & 5 and a synonym for 'blessing'.

The answer format is "*something* & *something*"
