Who fancies a riddle?

Recommended Posts

This is one of my favourites....

Five hundred begins it, five hundred ends it,

Five in the middle is seen;

First of all figures, the first of all letters,

Take up their stations between.

Join all together, and then you will bring

Before you the name of an eminent king.

Answer: Is it DAVID

Right on thumbsup.gif

ps: I like mowo's answer better I think I got it wrong sad.gif

Is it the stale uneaten crust of an egg mayonnaise sandwich?

There's always one...

Until I am measured

I am not known,

Yet how you miss me

When I have flown

What am I?

What have I got in my pocket....

And so is that tongue.gif

Question:

Who makes it, has no need of it.

Who buys it, has no use for it.

Who uses it can neither see nor feel it.

Here's a more challenging one.....

A hundred and one

by fifty divide,

And if a cipher

is rightly applied,

The answer is one from nine

Answer:

CLIO

a hundred = C,

one = I,

by fifty divide = L (between them)

cipher rightly applied = O (add zero to right)

one from nine = CLIO, one of the nine muses.

Question:

My first is high,

My second damp,

My whole a tie,

A writer's cramp.

Hyphen. The first two lines yield high-fen. A hyphen is used by a writer to tie (or cramp) two words together

and well done for finding the exact same riddle website as me and posting the one above it wink2.gif

I don't know if this is a riddle but at least you wont find the answer on a riddle page...

lol, you forget, I'm a barman with a broadband computer...

I'm not too certain about it to be honest, but it's something to do with DS0 being 64Kbps, DS1 being 1.544Mbps and DS3 being 44.736Mbps.

The relationship between this and beer is that if you imagine DS0 is one can of beer, then DS1 is a crate of 24 beers and DS3 is a truck containing 28 crates, or 672 beer cans.

am I on the right lines, it's all a bit too techy for me....
