Welcome!! Personally I don't stress about watch winding, perhaps others do.

Hold your horses..... Hold it...... Holding them....? Ah you're right! WINNER!! While lounging in the bath, Hardy decided to play with his two foot long plastic boat which was filled with metal nuts and bolts. While 'playing' he accidentally tipped the boat over, dumping the contents into the water. With the nuts and bolts in the water, will the water level in the bathtub rise, fall or stay the same as it was when the nuts and bolts were in the boat?

WINNER!! This is a most unusual paragraph. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think nothing was wrong with it - and in fact, nothing is wrong with it. It is unusual though. Why? Study it, think about it, and you may find out. Try to do it without coaching (or Googling). If you work at it for a bit it will dawn on you. So jump to it and try your skill at figuring it out. Good luck - don't blow your cool!

Some sabre dance!! ...but they only like them cute. When the kids hit 13 their xylophone days are OVER. And try taking that skill to your job interview

Ah, the spirit of the Victorian Gold Rush lives on I see!! WINNER! How could you rearrange the letters in the words new door to make one word? NB: There is only one correct answer.

I have just managed to delegate it!! Hehehe.... EDIT: And now am being asked a lot of dumb questions about how much housework I did last week...

WINNER!! Not just Dunc, but also Col, Kev, Pat and Bob. Bit of a beer tart that Slim! Which would be worth more, a kilogram of $10 pure gold coins or half a kilogram of $20 pure gold coins; or would they be worth the same amount? Explain. P.S. Feckin' census!! Bringing back bad tax return vibes so soon after July!

You are a winner!! Arthur only had $2 but he needed $3 for his cab fare home. Undaunted, he went to a pawn shop and pawned his $2 for $1.50. Art then bumped into Duncan and told him that he would sell his $2 pawn ticket for $1.50. Duncan agreed. Since Arthur started out with $2 and ended up with $3, who is out the extra dollar and why?

WINNER!! Just beat Pugwash to it! Suppose you have an open topped box that is 5cm x 5cm x 5cm (capacity: 125 cubic cm). Inside the box is a steel ball-bearing that is 25 cubic cm in size. Next to the box is a two litre pail filled with mercury. How many cubic cm of mercury would you pour into the box to completely submerge the ball bearing?

He shoots, he scores! WINNER! The pronounciation of which five letter word in English isn't changed by removing four of the letters?

WINNER!! Yes the answer is Tower! Why are 1990 Australian dollar bills worth more than 1989 Australian dollar bills?

Ladies and gentlemen....drum roll......The Amazing Ken! :sorcerer: WINNER! Yes, of course, he puts the bottle in the middle of the room, leaves, and then crawls into the room. What word from Group B belongs to Group A and why? A ) FRONT, SKI, MELON, FALL B ) ROAD, TYRE, TOWER, CLIFF

Yes! Or like this country here... <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< WINNER! The Amazing Des, the famous magician, said he could put a bottle in the centre of a room and crawl into it. How?

WINNER!! We'll what we can do about that This question was next out - quick money round, fingers on buzzers... Clara was born on December 27th, yet her birthday is always in summer. How can this be?

Seems we'll be seeing a lot more of your Robert Kubica in the coming weeks!! (Villeneuve has quit the team)

Ah, Nescafe! WINNER! In Duncan's cottage, where the temperature was below freezing, there was a newspaper, a fireplace, some kindling, and a kerosene lamp, he only has one match. What should he light first?

Do we need a question? Your questions are great! Besides, we have next-to-no standards here in the brain teaser game, as I shall now demonstrate! Sandy asked his secretary to make him a cup of coffee. While the secretary was making the coffee, her clip-on earring fell into the cup. Even though the cup had coffee in it, the earring didn't get wet. How is this possible?

Is John's horse called "Thursday"? As for the oranges - yes Sam and Sid are renowned bastards. But stealing fruit seems to be the latest thing for these criminal hoodlums. Next it will be long hair and 'pop' music. Oh, and it will make a difference because the taller one will have longer arms. I think someone got that.

You're on fire!! Yes, it's the one hole that works better - it's bigger than even two one cm holes. And yes, pee was the answer on the card for the other one. Sam and Sid were trying to snitch a few oranges from an orange grove but found them to be out of reach. Since Sam stands six feet and Sid stands five feet, Sam invited Sid to stand on his shoulders in order to reach the fruit. Sid climbed on Sam's shoulders but even then the fruit was beyond Sid's grasp. Would it make any difference in reach if Sam was to stand on Sid's shoulders?

Are you taking the piss? WINNER! As I said, I don't know if sucking would work or not, but I'm not game to try now that Puggy has had his way with it! Two identical tanks of water are being drained at the same time. One of the tanks has one two cm circular drain outlet and the other has two one cm circular drain outlets. Will one of the tanks empty faster than the other?

That's not the answer it gives - to be honest I don't know if that would work on not. Thoughts anyone?

WINNER @ Pugwash!! Another prize?! Okay - here! This is certain to annoy! You are in a concrete room. There is a steel pipe 25 cm in length cemented into the centre of the concrete floor. The pipe protrudes about 15 cm. A ping pong ball is dropped down the pipe. There is a fraction of a cm clearance around the ping pong ball and the pipe. Your task is to get the ping pong ball out of the steel pipe undamaged. The only items that are available are a wooden ruler, a ball of string, a pocket mirror, a paper clip and a small magnet. Since nothing else is in the room, how could you get the plastic ping pong ball out of the steel pipe?
