I had more problems trying to read through Jenny's instructions than solving the bloody thing itself!

Go beat (solve) that!
Oh dear... don't even tell me that! I probably can't even solve/bother to solve the normal one.

I agree.

"easy?" I think not.

no, it's gonna be one minute on the clock! I don't know when yet, I am examining the venue possibilities! I might have Rubik himself as a guest of honour, I wanna see how good he is in solving his own thingy!

Is Rubik the inventor of the Rubik's cube?

The Rubik's Cube is a 3-D mechanical puzzle invented in 1974 by Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture Ernő Rubik.

The wonders of Google.

No wonder it's called the Rubik's cube - I was always wondering why..
