The Road To Becoming A Sudoku King

*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
Scojo featured on the channel a couple of weeks ago with his favourite puzzle but many of you have suggested that your favourite Scojo sudoku is this one: Kingsroad. It's certainly a bit easier and contains some wonderful logic and plenty of opportunities to kick yourself too!

Play the puzzle at the link below:

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Cells touching diagonally cannot contain the same digit. Lines in the grid act as both Region Sum Lines and Parity Lines. Along a Region Sum Line, box borders divide the line into segments with equal totals. Different lines may have different totals. Along a Parity Line, digits must alternate between even and odd values.
