1) My aunt's brother isn't my uncle either despite them having the same mother and father, so I agree this is an easy one!
2) I have one, but you might idly dismiss it as a less common (but accepted spelling) variant. However, I do have another so there's no need to cry over it! And, if I'm not mistaken, I could also offer a third. Hmm, I'm not sure what's possessed me, but I've just thought of a fourth. Well, I'm delighted by my success so I may have to shout out number five! Now, I'd better get your attention so that I can tell you all about number six.

Next puzzle!
With the digits 1,2,3,4 you can make 24 four-digit numbers (all different).
What is the sum of these numbers?
RE: Puzzle a Day! - SarrissUK - 13-12-2022

Starting with the 10 for 4 digit would give 6 x 10 = 60 for 24 numbers in each column.
so the answer is 66660.

Well done, Mark.
