Sudokuaholics Anonymous 3

Yes please, MizT. I'll have a double decaf double frappacino double double latte...please. And just 1 muffin...for now!

JUNE, I missed seeing JUNE, D'day to you mate!

Now, June, can you describe your potato chips? Is that what we call french fries?

GAIL, I have half decaf coffee with skim milk, no fancy capichino machine here Will that sufice in a pinch?

I see Stella is not here today hehehe, not posting today? Did she get in TROUBLE for posting too much?

Over here MizT, we have chips and french fries. FF are the thin shoestring variety and chips are a larger cut. We also have wedges which are large chunky cut, usually very seasoned and served with sour cream and dipping sauces.
Sorry June for usurping you on this one, wasn't sure if you were still about.

Of course it will, MizT. Just a line from a Steve Martin movie, can't remember the name at the mo.

just a mental calculation..
347415
hope its correct

hey thats the ans for stellas 6 digit number..

oh, that's mental alright, appy!

right if you guys are for such kinda puzzle heres a simple one..no maths reqd..just logic..now as we all are sudoku experts!! which involves only logic trust everybody onboard must be knowing the ans..
ok theres a dark bridge to be crossed by four persons..only one flash light available and only two persons at a time can walk across..if each takes a different time to cross find the shortest time with which the bridge can be crossed by them..
a takes 1 minute
b takes 2 minutes
c takes 4 minutes and
d takes 9 minutes to cross the bridge..

GAIL, here potato chips are very thinly sliced potatoes that are deep fried in huge commercial kettles, Packaged and sent to the grocery store in big sealed bags. Shoe string, chunky cut or wedges of potatoes, when deep fried either at home or in restuarants, are called french fries.

I am back again. That's OK Gail. If you had waited for me the answer may not have made sense if it came up over the page!. Went and did yesterdays puzzles from our newspaper using the YOUR PUZZLES section on this site. Then wrapped the cakes I have made for the trading table at bowls tomorrow. Tried to take one out of the tin before it was properly cooled and it fell to pieces. Do not make cakes for ourselves any more so Hubby can enjoy eating it.

Make a trifle with it, June.

I know MizT, it gets very confusing, doesn't it. We also have bags of potato chips, called...chips! In England, they are known as crisps. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong, Brenda. (When you read this)

a+b cross =2min
a goes back with flash =1
a+c = 4min
a back =1min
a+d = 9min
Toal = 17 minutes by which time the battery has gone flat in the flashlight!!!

ok with that I sign off..have spent too much time here..something quite unusual for me..hope I find time like this to spend here and have some fun
G'day all
cheers

And in England what we call french fries they call Chips, right?

Such fun, seperated by a common language hehehe

Gail, Pastry base with apricot jam and coconut meringue on top would not make a great trifle. we will enjoy eating it as is !

Well. I spose I'd better mosey on along. Got a few things to do before bed and I am having trouble staying alert (heaven knows we need more lerts!)
Thanks for the coffee and muffin, MizT, lucky it was a decaf! Sorry I can't stay and play longer but if I don't put that meat away, the cats will have it for sure!!! Thanks for the chat all. CYOTFS
BTW appy, there's no way I can do that brainteaser at this time of the night and that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! You may notice, it's never me who answers Stella's.

G'day Appy, and yes, come back for more puzzles! Stella has been doing a couple a day from her calendar, and then you can add yours for our enjoyment.

Bring it in here tomorrow, June. That'll go down a treat in the morning.
Night appy, great to see you here.
Night all.

Oh! appy you went before checking my answer!!

JUNE, that sounds yummy even if I sould not callit a proper cake

Can you explaine this tradding table at your bowls?

HEY JUNE, send her a message from her page and ASK if tha tis it heheh, the suspense would be a bit much to have to sait till she came back again.

I could join you with a cup of coffee MizT and you could have a piece of my broken slice. Then it will soon be time for me to ZZZZZZZZ.

sait=wait

Here ya go, June, one cuppa comming up. milk and sugar on the table, help yourself.

I need to get busy again also, break time over. Like Gail, must put the meat (my meatloaf is now cooled) away , and wrap the muffins and the peach crips for desert tonight. The cats would be in BIG trouble if they tried to jump on to the counters! I do not need to tempt them.

About yur broken cake, my Dad used to say, your mouth will not know the difference. Thanks for the broken slice.

ONE MORE and i would have a CP! Must try

MizT about once a month we have a table with goods for sale. Could be unwanted gifts, crafts, jams etc, cakes. Just to make a few extra dollars towards the bowling club. It is only on a "ladies" day and as most players are in 60's to 80's the goods need to be things they would be likely to buy. When I make a cake or slice I generally sell it in 2 halves as that is about all most would eat.

Yes Gail you are correct about the chips/crisps for the commercially made packets.
We call French Fries chips (apart from the Macdonalds, KFC and BurgerKing franchises who use the term fries) I much prefer the chunky cut 'chips'which are far healthier than the thin fries. It has something to do with the surface area of the 'chip' in contact with the oil..

I missed out on coffee again MizT.. I must get my timing a bit better

June why not do a sale when the men are around?
I'm sure that you would sell out of cakes quite quickly, especially if there are any single men at the club. This was the case when my father played bowls many years ago.

Today I am having a very quiet time. Two daughters are back at school/university, OH is out at work and son is holed up in his room. I am actually getting work done now without distraction. trouble is no one seems to be around on here when I can chat

I may as well try for a CP, though I bet someone is lurking and will stop me

looks like I managed it

Will stop by later to see if anyone is around, bye for now

Hello, all!!

Time to go do the puzzles. Bye!
