depending on whether you regard Henry VII 1491-1547 as 15th or 16th Century

[Kriscat28]

You have to finish on a double so it would be 16

[Kriscat28]

P.S They are all dart scores, thats why they add up to 501 and you have to finish on a double, hence the last "score" is 16.

I cannot believe that you are cheating on a Compers News puzzle. I hope Steve sees this and that you don't win.
Do you have no scruples.

Tallulah! as Compers News admits, ''. . . the internet makes it so easy for people to find the answers to EVERYTHING these days . . .''

Isn't that exactly what the Internet is for?

I see that three years ago you were criticising people for using a Question and Answer website to find answers to their questions. Nothing changes does it?

and ABers were quick to give you their opinions.

[Tallulah!]

At least Compers News agrees with me. Asking for the answers the day before the book is actually delivered is pathetic.
Yes, I was on he few years back. I looked for a whole year and several of the quizzes have gone out of production now. Too many entrants got full marks making the prize money a pittance. I wrote to lots of publications and got similar replies from all.
I enjoyed the banter and hope those with the names I instantly forgot are well. And Bea.
Fancy lie-in-king still still sitting at the computer all day on a Sunday providing the answers to the Mail on Sunday His crown must be enormous.

[Tallulah!]

just seen that people missed me and posted quite nice comments. I wouldn't have seen the Compers News post asking for all the answers if the puzzle hadn't been set by a possible relation.
