The Devil's Dice

The very last puzzle in "Diabolical Brainbenders" is the worst. Har har! This is partly because I don't give the answer, but mainly because it's accidentally even more diabolical than I meant it to be!

In the very first prints of this book, the two dice pictures on page 99 are the wrong way round. This is how it should be:

This is how the top half of page 99 SHOULD look.
If your copy of the book has the pictures this way round, then TOUGH LUCK.
You haven't got one of the extremely rare and valuable flawed versions.

When I threw the dice for the second time the dice landed with what looks like 98 and 61 uppermost. This picture should be at the top of the page.
When I threw the dice for the third time the dice landed with what looks like 69 and 99 uppermost. So this picture should be lower down the page.

I get loads of e-mails from people telling me to make my challenges tougher, so when you get a really tough one DON'T COMPLAIN. In fact I wanted to keep this puzzle as it is, but the boring printers have already put the pictures the right way round so from now on it will be easy. Booo.
Just in case you thought the puzzle was impossible, one of my worst enemies ADAM DAVIES managed to solve it anyway! And he's only a kid aged about zero years old so there.
AND... Adam didn't even have the little hint I'm going to give you which is: As all the numbers are different, the number 69 can only appear once!
Oh, and by the way, if you're stuck on the first step of the Mystery Tour, I say the answer is 35 (even if I'm wrong). After all, look at the MM logo below. What shape would you call it - square or rectangle?

THE FIRST SOLVER

Jay Kim from Korea was so pleased he'd got the right answer he wanted his name here. So here it is:

Jay Kim

After we put Jay's name here, lots of other people told us they'd got the answer too but sadly we can't put ALL their names on this page or the whole internet would collapse.
