Nianza2hot: Your answer does not work because of the third clue. If you picture the table with four people at it, the person four times to the right of the father IS the father. So, the father must be the one with the peas.
Woo - finally got one of these things right! Great intro into Grid Puzzles b/c of the clues - esp the 3rd (I drew a little table w/people ). Very fun - thanks!
i liked it
Fun, but a lot harder than it originally looked.
Very nice.
Excellent difficulty -- just enough to make you think, but not so hard you're it looses the fun appeal
