The BFG have me this idea.

I have a lateral thinking puzzle book here right beside me, waiting to be opened. Will you dare to take the book on?

Here we go. I'll choose THREE puzzles from the book to start off with. You game?

A) What do you put on the table, cut and then pass around, but never actually eat?

B) I'm inside, halfway up a building that has no windows or balconies, yet I've got an incredible view of the city around me. What sort of building am I in?

C) I had to meet an Australian, an American and a South African at the airport. One of them was called Bruce, and I identified him immediately, despite never having met any of them before. How?

Well, no doubt I've strained your brains with these little beauties. Work hard. The answers will be announced at 6:00, just the same as the BFG's.

Whoever answers the puzzles correctly gets a good pat on the back. And hopefully there will be 'Knowabales' or something...

How many S's in 007?
