3: Eight crows were on a wall. After a farmer shot one, how many
crows were left?
One. The dead one. The rest flew away.

keep chickens, and no-one gives him any eggs. Where does he get his eggs?
Mr Smith keeps ducks and eats duck eggs.

ReplyDeleteVery clever. I got the breath one correct but didn't think the dead crow would still be there, I assumed he would fall off the fence. and I should have remembered about the sponge.
ReplyDeleteLogic is a funny thing.
ReplyDeleteYes, I had the first three.
ReplyDeleteWhen are you starting your Christmas crackers factory?
ReplyDeleteThe very idea of a duck egg makes me a little ill. I'm not sure why.
ReplyDeleteFace slap myself when reading the answer to number one.
ReplyDeleteProtest: Most multi storey car parks I've been in had no views at all...! (I don't have a car though, so my experience is limited...)
ReplyDeleteI got the breath and crows but didn’t put much thought into it. I more or less shrug my shoulders and move on, knowing that I am not very good at such.
ReplyDeleteReading the answers today, they all seem so obvious but I only got one right yesterday
ReplyDeleteThe secret to getting all those answers is not to overthink the questions.
ReplyDeleteAs usual, I got a couple, then I tended to overthink the rest!
ReplyDeleteI got more than I expected. But oh dear, missed the peacock, even though I know a similar trick question about peacocks and eggs. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteGroan, they're the kind of questions you should get all correct but never do!
ReplyDeleteFun!

ReplyDeleteOh you are such a tease Ms Janice!
ReplyDeleteI only got the breath and wasn't even sure about that one :-)
