Morris is a gambler. One day he bets his friend £1,000 that he can jump from a 13 storey building onto the concrete street below without hurting himself. he thinks Morris is off his head and accepts the bet.
The question is:
HOW DID MORRIS WIN THE £1,000? jumped out of a ground floor window
Sidney the fisherman
Sidney loves to fish. He finds it very relaxing and uses an expensive gold plated fishing rod. One day, he is fishing off the side of a barge moored against the bank of the Thames. The hook on the end of Sidney’s fishing line is 50cm below the surface of the Thames. The tide is rising at the rate of 30cm per hour.
The question is:
HOW FAR BELOW THE WATER LEVEL WILL THE HOOK BE AFTER SIDNEY HAS BEEN FISHING FOR 3 HOURS? 50 cm ..barge rises as the tide rises
Johns punishment
John was a naughty teenager and was always getting himself into trouble at school. One week he was so bad that as a punishment he was asked to carry 100 bags of sand from the store room to the long jump pit. He found it a great struggle and after he had taken the first few bags to the pit, he soon realised that he could put something in each bag to make it lighter to carry.
The question is:
WHAT DID HE PUT INTO EACH BAG? put a hole in the bag

The question is:
WHICH TUB DOES SHE EVENTUALLY CHOOSE TO GIVE BENJY HIS WEEKLY BATH? 20c......20f is freezing!!
here you go..maths puzzles
A solo dice game is played where, on each turn, a normal pair of dice is rolled. The score is calculated by taking the product, rather than the sum, of the two numbers shown on the dice.
On a particular game, the score for the second roll is five more than the score for the first; the score for the third roll is six less than that of the second; the score for the fourth roll is eleven more than that of the third; and the score for the fifth roll is eight less than that of the fourth. What was the score for each of these five throws?
A high school has a strange principal. On the first day, he has his students perform an odd opening day ceremony:
There are one thousand lockers and one thousand students in the school. The principal asks the first student to go to every locker and open it. Then he has the second student go to every second locker and close it. The third goes to every third locker and, if it is closed, he opens it, and if it is open, he closes it. The fourth student does this to every fourth locker, and so on. After the process is completed with the thousandth student, how many lockers are open?
You must cut a birthday cake into exactly eight pieces, but you're only allowed to make three straight cuts, and you can't move pieces of the cake as you cut. How can you do it?
I was in London the other day and this tramp came up to me and said, "Mister, I haven't tasted food in a week."
I said, "Don't worry, it still tastes the same."
My teacher handed me a blank piece of white paper.
"Make a paper plane," she said.
"It already is," I said.
Three women are about to be executed by firing squad. One''s a brunette, one''s a redhead, and one''s a blonde. The guard brings the brunette forward and the executioner asks if she has any last requests. She says no, and the executioner shouts, "Ready! Aim!"
Suddenly the brunette yells, "EARTHQUAKE!!!"
Everyone is startled and throws themselves on the ground while she escapes.
The guard brings the redhead forward and the executioner asks if she has any last requests. She say no, and the executioner shouts, "Ready! Aim!"
Suddenly the redhead yells, "TORNADO!!!"
Everyone is startled and looks around for cover while she escapes.
By now the blonde has it all figured out. The guard brings her forward and the executioner asks if she has any last requests. She says no, and the executioner shouts, "Ready! Aim!"
And the blonde yells, "FIRE!!!"
now this is real work!!!
To do list

2. Check off the first thing on the list (check)
3. Realize you have already accomplished two things (check)
4. Reward yourself with a nap (in progress)
I see a group of scousers have won a 45.5 million pound share of the Euromillions jackpot.
A spokesman said, "They were going away on a well deserved holiday, but have decided on a weekend city break as they have to be back in Liverpool to sign on for Tuesday."
