What is significant about this paragraph:
I once found two tiny ferrets, tired, looking sorry for themselves, covered in dirt. I decided to help the poor critters by putting them in the town zoo's 'ferret rinsing box', then rinsing them off using some tinctured liquid. They soon seemed much more pristine, much brighter, much more cheerful. Within two weeks I set them free, returned into the wild, they seemed very delighted with this. I, of course, enjoyed it very much.

Last night, I was looking at a road sign and could see that Leeds was 13 miles away, Stoke was 13 miles away and Leek was 10 miles away.
Unfortunately, it was too dark to see how far it was to Manchester. Can you help me?

Can you find at least 10 different colours hidden in the following paragraph? Can you find all 15?
Many injured animals are invited to live at the 'Toronto Range'. Stop in Kangaroo Corner and marvel at the lovely creatures within. Dig over the potato patch to find small furry caterpillars, but don't yell! Owls can be found swooping for edible nibbles, earwigs, or perhaps bluebottles in the undergrowth. The brown bear, Rob, lacks grace and can look like a sublime ogre, enter at your own risk! Peacocks can be found showing their colourful plumage, which looks fantastic when viewed with our ultraviolet torch.
