Editor’s Page Mindboggler! This time no-one came up with the correct answers, so I had the slap up meal
on my own!. The answers I wanted are the following: ·
What has rivers but no water, cities but no buildings and
forests but no trees? Answer...
A map! ·
What is it that can explode slowly without smoke or flame?
Answer....
The population! ·
What can you do once in a day and is positively encouraged
but to do it twice in a day is a serious crime? Answer.... Vote! This time the mindboggler is a very old
one. Who will be the first to tell me the correct answer? As I was going to St Ives, I met a man with seven wives. Every wife had 7
sacks, every sack had 7 cats, every cat had 7 kits – kits, cats,sacks
and wives. How many were going to St Ives? Now to the winner of the Cryptic
Bible Quiz question set by Helen Downes. Well done to Tom McIntyre from Scotland for working out ‘Methuselah’
as the correct answer. The prize of a
very good quality bottle of red wine is winging it’s way to Tom
right now. Thank
You to: Contributors and
