Picture a famous European structure.
a building, a monument, anything big and well known.
Now imagine the city this structure is in.

I thinking of Paris and the Eiffel Tower. Were you?

Back to the blackboard again. This time I write a two digit number, this time higher than 50. Both digits are even and both are different. Which number do you see?

I drew "86". But I was going to draw "68". Whatever.

Think of a jungle animal. What is it?

Finally, I am thinking of a geometric shape. Its quite a simple one - not a dodecahedron!! I want you to mentally picture one as well. Then around that I want you to picture another simple shape, so that the first is inside the second. You now have one shape inside the other. Now make them different colours.
Scroll down...

Hmm.....bit trickier this one. I reckon you're thinking of a red circle inside a green square?
Good aren't I?

Hmmm.....88 eh? Maybe Maths isn't your strong point Charlie!

You must have been in the Pioneer Corps!!!

RTFQ!!!

Ha ha!
Hmmm, not sure which was lacking there, my maths or my reading comprehension!

And no, not the Pioneer Corps!
Just an Oggie, though that has to be better than an ex-Pongo!

Ah-ha Oggy Rock-Ape. And Cornwall as well? Reminds me of Exercise Volcanex '97 an Anglo-French exercise held at St Mawgan and Brawdy in Wales. The weather was a bit shite, but the Oggy Rocks went down with hypothermia, and the ex was cancelled. Didn't bother me. Me and my team got a week on the piss in Newquay. Wahey!!!

I missed Volcanex (I was on a round the world trip

) The exercise wasn't cancelled (7 days in an OP isn't 'cancelled'!), perhaps just the bit you were due to take part in! And it wasn't the Oggies that got hypothermia, it was the French (I was going to say frogs but thought that might be too controversial

) The Oggies wouldn't get hypothermia in Cornwall- we're used to the St Mawgan Sunshine as we call it, and the Dartmoor sunshine, and the Brecon sunshine etc, etc... I haven't known anyon in the Sqn to get that in 12 years.

Us Oggies do lots of good work these days, not just harrassing 'Guins and Aircrew on exercises (although we do our fair share of that!). Most recently 50 of my Cornish Rock mates (lawyers, school teachers, builders, plumbers, architects, telecomms engineers, mechanics- you name it in civvy street) went to the Gulf to look after your oppos as there aren't enough regular Rocks.

Err, have I hijacked this post?!

Did you get it? If you thought it was 37 thats because I was trying to confuse you. Thats the number I first thought of....

39. What do I win?
