Reasoning
Each term increases by the number of letters in the previous term (ignoring any hyphens).
1 + length("ONE") = 4
4 + length("FOUR") = 8
8 + length("EIGHT") = 13
13 + length("THIRTEEN") = 21
21 + length("TWENTYONE") = 30
30 + length("THIRTY") = 36
36 + length("THIRTYSIX") = 45

Puzzle 314
My BrainBashers electronic world atlas has developed another fault.
I listed six countries, and how far away each was from England, and here are the results:
Spain 14,000 miles
Fiji 12,000 miles
Germany 18,000 miles
Brazil 16,000 miles
India 16,000 miles
Iceland --,--- miles
There are two alternate series, starting with the first two numbers, and each formed by doubling the preceding number in its own series and subtracting 2.

My special BrainBashers clock works in a very unusual way.
It only ever shows the reflection of the current time!
