Obviously this puzzle would have been trivial if you hadn't got the 13th digit wrong.
Ah, missed that, thought I got them all right, but still no solutions came forward till I started giving big hints. I made up this puzzle from one I saw in the 'Ask Marylin" column in our sunday paper, but it was based on states in the US. So I changed it to counties in Ireland. I made it a bit trickier by not including the last two letters, Y & Z in the list to throw people off if they totaled everything, which would be screaming out 26! But if someone got so far as to notice I did 2 M's instead of 3, they would have still solved it.
