Not that keen on the colour, but still pretty good.

I got to within one in the 30 secs but, even after two or three minutes, I can't solve it. 100/25=4 ((50+4)*7)+9= 387

I got it in 30 seconds 50 - 7 = 43 43 x 9 = 387 25 + 75 = 100 100 / 100 = 1 387 + 1 = 388

*claps* I think I could have stared at those numbers all evening and I still wouldn't get it..

The speed is mostly down to luck. I look for the best division of the target, and in this case my first choice was 9 which gives 43 and a third. The rest fell into place. If I'd started with 7, it could have taken a lot longer...

I like that dress - laced up and with an inviting hemline

Spotty today. Dress feels a lot more summery than the weather does...   (Note: I think you might be able to get the numbers game within 30 seconds today...)

It may have been on filming day.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

With those heels she's pushing her centre of gravity forward, increasing the pressure on her lower back, risking sciatica and other non-specific back pain.

But her calves look terrific. Which is a small trade off, let's face it.
