Puzzles

In this little book, we will have a look at a few different sorts of puzzles, with many original ones interspersed with the odd quiz questions (to keep your memory muscle amused), lateral thinking puzzles and wordy interludes and few of the better known puzzles and riddles from history with a little background to their origins.

My favourite puzzles are those where the simplicity of the question belies the complexity of the answer (such as the 'Whispered Numbers') or where there appears to be insufficient information (such as 'What's the Date?' or 'Mr Bramley's Apple').

I hope you enjoy these assorted brain teasers.
