Ok, Im feeling theres a definite lack of riddling going on, so I thought Id start putting some riddles up here Once someone guesses the correct answer, I will post up the next riddle for you
Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is

If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is The third word is " language". You told me there are 3 words in the English Language. Then you asked me what the third word was? The third word is 'language'. All of the GRY stuff, that dosent apply at all, that's just there as extra, useless info. Right?

Yes well done Velaska, I dont know how you worked that out, I sat there staring at it for ages trying to work it out and eventually gave up and just got the answer
A woman has 7 children, half of them are boys. How can this be possible?

Yes well done Velaska, I dont know how you worked that out, I sat there staring at it for ages trying to work it out and eventually gave up and just got the answer I suck at math, but I'm good with numbers. And I love riddles. A woman has 7 children, half of them are boys. How can this be possible? I'll have to give this one some more thought.
