What's the answer, please, boatbuilder, Google is no help at all? :think: :D

I'd forgotten all about this one, Dave. Here is the answer:

It's number 29 and it's written in words as shown using 29 straight lines:

T = 2
W = 4
E = 4
N = 3
T = 2
Y = 3
N = 3
I = 1
N = 3
E = 4

NOTE: I took this from another forum, however somebody might say that the 'I' is written with 3 not 1 straight lines if you include the tiny 'bits' on the top and bottom of it. On the forum in question, the letter 'I' actually appears as 'l' without them 'bits', so I guess it's down to the font style used on there which is different from on here. I have only just noticed this difference.
