LaurLa, it’s the one I posted above. I can ask the author about it in her Facebook group, but that’s a closed group, so I’m not sure if that’s enough for you to fix it.

Bit of a hectic work week,
Nearly done with my Y book which will be done tomorrow. Then my I and B book will be done over the weekend 😊
When is the end of the round? I'm sure it's posted somewhere but I can't seem to find it. (not that I looked all tat hard...)
Also, I should finish my N book today and my Y book tomorrow...
I think it ends late Sunday/early Monday, depending on where you are.

I can do the N in Poison.Also, Laura's right. I can do the first option in Group 2.
