Puzzle 33
Last week I decided to cycle to my Grandparents's house.
On the 1st day, I cycled half of the distance.
On the 2nd day, I cycled one half of the remaining distance.
On the 3rd day, I cycled three quarters of the remaining distance.
On the 4th day, I cycled 10 miles.
On the 5th day, I cycled two thirds of the remaining distance.
On the final day, I cycled the remaining 5 miles.
How far is it to my Grandparent's house?

Bog Snorkelling - Logic Puzzles
Four friends were competing in the internationally renowned BrainBashers Bog Snorkelling competition.
As usual, the judges were a little careless and once again, they managed to lose the results.
Luckily, a number of spectators were able to remember the following snippets of information:
Only one person wore the same number as the position they finished.
Gary, who didn't wear green, beat Barry.
Larry beat the person who wore yellow.
The person who wore number 3, wore green.
The person who wore number 2 finished first, whereas Harry came last.
The person who finished second wore green, Barry wore yellow, and the person wearing red beat the person wearing blue.
Can you work out who finished where, and the number and colour they wore?
