Ritey Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 There are 5 houses, each is a different colour In each house lives a person of a different nationality. These 5 owners all drink a certain beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar and keep a certain pet. No owner has the same pet, smokes the same brand of cigar or drinks the same drink as another owner. 1: The Briton lives in a red house. 2: The Swede keeps dogs as pets 3: The Dane drinks tea 4: The green house is on the left of the white house (they are also next door to each other) 5: The green house owner drinks coffee 6: The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds 7: The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill 8: The man living in the house right in the center drinks milk 9: The Norwegian lives in the first house 10: The man who smokes Blend lives next to the one who keeps cats 11: The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill 12: The owner who smokes Blue Master drinks beer 13: The German smokes Prince 14: The Norwegian lives next to the blue house 15: The man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water. The question is: WHO KEEPS FISH? So what is the answer?, PM ME! Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_B Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 [ QUOTE ] Jack Charlton. [/ QUOTE ] Reminds me of my youth, when the pub we frequented used to have quiz nights. We'd answer "Demis Roussos" to any question we weren't sure of the answer to (and some we did know that were amusing enough) regardless of the subject of the question.

Dave [/ QUOTE ] in another version of this I have seen this question: The green house is on the left of the white house (they are also next door to each other) is phrased: The green house is on the left of the white house Thus giving two possible answers, if you spend long enough on the problem, never seen that end bit before.
