JOKE OF THE WEEK
A duke is hunting in a forest with his men-at-arms and servants when he comes upon a tree. Archery targets are painted all over it, and smack in the middle of each is an
arrow.
"Who is this incredibly fine archer?" cries the duke. "I must find him."
After continuing through the forest for a few miles, he comes across a small boy carrying a bow and arrow. Eventually the boy admits that it was he who shot the arrows plumb in the center of all the targets.
"You didn't just walk up to the targets and hammer the arrows into the middle, did you?" asks the duke worriedly.
"No my lord. I shot them from 100 paces. I swear it by all that I hold holy."
"That is truly astonishing," says the duke. "I hereby admit you into my service. But I must ask one favor in return. You must tell me how you came to be such an outstanding shot."
"Well," said the boy, "first I fire the arrow at the tree, and then I paint the target around it."
GET YOUR THINKING CAP ON
A question will be set every week for you all to try and answer. The question will be a mind-bending puzzle, and the answer will be given next week.
The question:-

Cow Patty Bingo, sounds like fun, doesn't it? Written by SetupWeasel, it's something that you may not have thought existed, but it does, and here's the article to prove it.
NAME THAT SONG
Each week I will print a quote from a song, all you have to do is guess the title of the song and who sang it.
This weeks quote:-
'Once in every life-time, comes a love like this'
THE WEEKLY ANAGRAM
For those that don't know, an anagram is a word or words, formed from rearranging letters from another word or words. An example anagram would be, Cat Got Beer, which rearranged makes my name Greebo T. Cat.
