Oh campanilla. You have posted no less than nine posers in one message. How are we going know when 200 arrives now? You also missed out some vital questions:

1. Will the motorcycle have enough power to work the straightening/curling tongs?

2. How long after the anticipated starting time will it be before the motorcyclist's partner is actually ready to leave.

3. Do we have enough sunblock, or should we buy another three tubes just to be sure?

4. Do we have enough midge repellant? (See 3 above).

5. Is there a place to buy a new teapot, because the one we bought last week isn't quite the right colour?

I could go on......

See John, you've totally got the hang of it now. If we had had all that absolutely vital information at the beginning it would have been so easy to work out 48.284 miles. Do remember this for future brain teasers. Oh and by the way, could we please drop all those silly little x's and y thingys and perhaps use little hearts and clubs and things like Mamya uses, so much prettier don't you think?

maths (as taught in schools these days)seems to have changed a bit. Sample question from recent exam:-
If David has 6 sweets and Peter has 4, How many times must David hit Peter before he has 10 sweets.

Terry

Is not the answer dependant on how many sweets Peter is willing to trade for a bit of naughty spanking?

I have a recurring nightmare of going over the Viagara falls.

It would rather depend on whether they were both sadomasochists in which case they would probably settle for five sweets each, but, should the teacher be a dominatrix, she would end up with all ten plus a bag of smarties from the headmaster who, possibly, could be a voyeur....... the permutations are endless!!! I just can't see for the moment where the Board of School Governors fit in the equation!

Yeah. Times have certainly changed. We didn't have paedophiles when I was a kid. We had to buy our own sweets.
