Can you complete this grid of letters?

Each line is a valid 5-letter word with its first and last letters missing.

The missing letters form a word when read downwards, and the same word appears both at the start and at the end.

What is the missing word?

Puzzle 7 


During a recent school trip to the seaside, I sat at the rear of the bus.

I noticed a strange thing: Laura, Jesse and Wendy were all sitting on the left side of the bus.

Even more curious was the fact that Steven, John and Danielle were all sitting on the right side of the bus.

On which side was James sitting?

Puzzle 8 


A very long time ago, at the beginning of the week, I was given some money for my birthday.

On Monday, I spent a quarter of the money on clothes.

On Tuesday, I spent one third of the remaining money on music.

On Wednesday, I spent half of the remaining money on food.

Finally, on Thursday, I spent the last £1.25 on a book.

How much birthday money did I receive?
