    The only other one I know is "pack my bags with five dozen boxes of juicy liquorice". I'm sure there's a name for it - pan something I expect.

    This doesn't work. Pa7 will be followed by Ka7. Pb7 doesn't work either because b7 is occupied. I think. I am terrible at chess. I know how the bits move and not much more, but I like a puzzle and there weren't many pieces involved.

    1843 half farthing

  23. From my own observations they appear much more common than either 26a (missing serifs) or large roses.
