Further nonsense
1: Detective Smith finds Romeo and Juliet dead on the kitchen floor, surrounded by broken glass. There were no signs of a break-in. What killed them?
2: Five men were travelling along a lane when it began to rain. Four of the men got wet but the fifth didn’t, though he had no umbrella, hat or raincoat. How could that be?
3: A woman watched her husband plunge to his death. Later she found him working in the garden. How was that possible?
4: A carrot, a woollen scarf and five buttons were found on the ground in a field. If no-one put them there, how did they get there?
5: A man stopped his car outside a hotel and immediately realized he was bankrupt. How did he know?
6: A carton containing six eggs is on the table. Six people take one egg each. How is it that one egg is left in the carton?
Answers tomorrow.
Hmmm - have got about half. Will sleep on the remaining ones.
ReplyDeleteMy solving skills have obviously deserted me, since I have been stumped on all of them. I will await the morrow.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll wait for tomorrow's answers ;-) xxx
ReplyDeleteI think each one of these would be a good subject for a mystery novel. I'm sure I don't have an answer for any of them, lol.
ReplyDeleteI think I know half, looking forward to the answers being revealed.
