Very good Elizabeth. I'll attempt another one but don't hold your breath that I'll get back to you too soon. The site seems to be grinding to a halt. Okay try this one. It drove me mad for ages. The seals at Seaworld came out to do their daily show, but they immediately dived back into the water. What happened to make them do that? Aileen |

OK here is one but brain teasers are not my fing, never mind others can try it: A couple decide to build themselves a square house. In each wall they have a window and each window faces north. There you go. Pat x |

I'll probably make a pig's ear of it. The man decides to kill his wife but needs a solid alibi. Is he the DJ at the radio station and what he does is puts on a long playing record, so that the police will think he's still at work. He goes home and kills the wife and drives back but tunes into his radio show only to realise that the record he has put on has kept skipping. (I cheated, hubby had to help me with that one). Aileen. Ps have you worked out why the seals at Seaworld dived back into the water instead of putting on their daily show. Why did they do that. |

Winter, pretty close, the version I recall was that he was stuck in a traffic jam, and couldnt get back to the program.....which as you said was his alibi Bob Ps what else, are hubby's for? |

Hey Bob as you haven't come back with a scenario for the seal teaser what about this one. A woman throws something out of the window, and dies! Aileen |

Is she in a plane and is sucked out once she has broken the window? |

No she's inside a building. Look at the clue I gave Bob. I think John B is off trying to decipher it. |

A snake or poisonous spider has just bitten her and she's thrown it out of the window! |
