Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply. Digits in two cells separated by an X sum to 10. Digits in two cells separated by a V sum to 5. For any pair of orthogonally adjacent cells where both cells are coloured yellow: The digits cannot add to 5 or 10; the digits cannot be consecutive (ie cannot have a difference of 1); and the digits cannot have a ratio of 1:2 (so one digit cannot be double the other).

NB There is no negative constraint re the Xs and Vs. ie dominoes without an X, for example, can sum to 10 (or any other number).
