After visiting one of my very old relatives, I travelled home in their old jalopy. The car was old and battered, it had a leak from the petrol tank, and I was stuck in second gear.
This meant that I could only travel along at a steady 30 miles per hour and managed a paltry 20 miles per gallon of fuel.
At the start of the journey, I had placed exactly 10 gallons of fuel into the tank. I knew though, that the fuel tank lost fuel at the rate of half a gallon per hour.
Just as I arrived home, the car stopped because it had run out of fuel and I had only just made it.
How far was it from my relative's house to my home?
At the recent spring fayre, four keen gardeners were displaying their fine roses.
In total there were four colours and each rose colour appeared twice.
From the clues below, can you tell who had which colour roses?
Gardener Green had a yellow rose. Gardener Yellow did not have a red one. Gardener Red had a blue rose, but not a green one. Gardener Blue did not have a yellow one. One person with a red rose also had a green one. One person with a yellow rose also had a blue one. One of the persons with a green rose had no red. Neither of the persons with a yellow rose had a green one. No person had two roses of the same colour. No two persons had the same two colour roses, and their names provide no clues.
