    [​IMG] It took a while, but here is a new riddle!

    Here on earth it is true, yesterday is always before today; but there is a place where yesterday always follows today. Where?

    26 hours later...
    Someone posting another riddle?

    [EDIT]
    I've got one actully:

    Postman Pat delivers the mail in the small village Tenhouses. This village, as you already suspected, has only one street with exactly ten houses, numbered from 1 up to and including 10.
    In a certain week, Pat did not deliver any mail at two houses in the village; at the other houses he delivered mail three times each. Each working day he delivered mail at exactly four houses.

    The sums of the house numbers where he delivered mail were:
    on Monday: 18
    on Tuesday: 12
    on Wednesday: 23
    on Thursday: 19
    on Friday: 32
    op Saturday: 25
    on Sunday: he never works

    Which two houses didn't get any mail that week?

    Nope, I think I'll wait another day and then give the answer, so we can get this thread moving again.

    Well, since this topic is as good as dead, maybe this would revive it - how about a few 'lateral thinking' questions?

    Easy one: Guy lying dead in a field wearing a weird outfit, no tracks of any kind anywhere, how did he die?

    ** May be a little wrong in the wording but I'm running out of time and it's pretty simple anyway - probably one of the easiest of this kind of riddle I know.

    He was swimming in some lake 100 miles away, then an fire-airplane swooped him up and dropped him above the fire. BTW, I think we had the same riddle a page back

    You got it Morgoth, maybe I just didn't scan the previous pages well enough to catch it if we did have it.
