Battleships

The entire fleet of ships, shown below, is hidden in the grid. They may be lying horizontally or vertically, but they must not be touching each other, even diagonally. The numbers along the side and top of the grid show you how many parts of ships can be found in each row or column. When ships are placed in the grid, you can fill in the misses all around them. Three hits and a miss have been filled in for you. Can you discover where each ship lies? Solutions in Monday’s Daily Mirror
