You've only got eight lines in your grid?you've missed a line.

First point: you've missed out the third line, which should read:

**2******

Second: You stay you're stuck, but don't say where. So assuming you're finding it hard to get started...

Look at which number only appears once in column 8. What does this tell you about Box 5? Now make some eliminations in Box 3 as a result of the triple on the top row of Box 1. Make some more eliminations in Box 1 as a result of the same triple. Continue until piping hot.
