There was a couple there I did not know but I'll think I'll come back when you put the answers up......and just say ..."I knew that..."

hehe crusaders, i will do that today. i have had no time, i'm so busy in the garden (i'm so exciting hehe)

Chest without hinge, key or lidYet inside golden treasure is hid.....?????

i didn't know this, but i worked it out ! yay !. is it an egg ?. a chest with no lid or hinge, but the golden yolk in hidden inside ?

I know that one. I'll let mig take first crack at it, though

Looks like good timing at the moment in actually catching people on line......

What are you doing in the garden today, Mignuna.....? and don't say it's not exciting.....the garden is an exciting sometimes terrrifying place (terrifying if you could see the 2m weeds growing in the very back of my yard....I don't have to go down there much...hence the neglect!)

'D' oh!'........have you ever gone to make a coffee and when putting your cup on the table...without noticing...you put it upside down and continue to fill it.....I have never done that before just now....I will say again...'D' oh!"

Excellent work!! not to mention dagwood dogs, porky pies and trouble'n'strife (thought that one's a bit of a barry . . .)

Also just goes to prove my general ineptitude when faced with tv gameshows - would have won $2000 and then lost it all to "done a stevo". bloody bloody. thought my stroin was better than that . . .

true, that one was a complete barry, chicaenlosarboles !

ah, don't feel so bad. $2000 was a hard level. and 'doing a stevo' is a hard one

Mignuna,

Good morning Good morning....what a wonderful day....hope you are happy and smiling with life going your way!!

Do you know that riddle .....the one that goes something like this......you are lost and come to two doors....one of the doors speaks and says that one of the doors leads home the other leads to certain death....you may ask one question of one of the doors in order to find the right way home...

I am 90% sure of the answer but I always get confused....?

crusaders,

you missed an important part of the riddle. One of the doors can tell only the truth, the other can tell only lies, but you don't know which...

The question you ask (either door) is "which door would HE tell me to go through to go home"...then you go out the other door.

If you ask the door who can tell only the truth, he will point to the door that leads to death, because if you asked the door that tells only lies, that's how he would answer.

If you ask the door who can tell only lies, he will also point to the door that leads to death, because that's the OPPOSITE of how the truthtelling door would answer.

You understand now?
