A wonderful suggestion by the lovely Sleepy. The return of a thread full of riddles. Lets see how smart you all are. :D

Here, I'll post a few to get started, can you solve them? If you want, post your own. Remember, no cheating ;)

----

Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

A beggar's brother died, but the man who died had no brother. How could that be?

A word I know, six letters it contains, subtract one, and twelve remains. What am I?

I'm fairly sure I got 5: they are a doubles team but as for 4? Hmm... possibly something like solitude.

I'll start a new thread for the 'solve the mystery'. If it does take off then the questions / answers will get lost in here.

They did start to tunnel before they decided it would take too long so they piled the rubble up, that they'd already dug out, and climbed up that and through the window.
