Balance Loop Sudoku - An Addendum
991*** Last Night's Sudoku ***
Last night we released an epic 2hr 15min video in which Simon did battle with the mighty Gliperal's Balance Loop Sudoku. Some of the comments on that video noted that Simon had failed to explain a piece of the loop segment in column 1. Let's put that right!
Play the puzzle at the link below:

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Draw a single closed loop that travels orthogonally through the centres of some cells. The loop does not use any cell more than once and must travel through each dot. The two loop segments extending from both sides of a dot must be balanced ie the sum of the digits up to and including the digit in the cell containing the first turn must be the same. ALL possible dots are given.
