Sherlock Soc St Andrews

Sherlock Holmes and Murder Mystery Society will be at the Refresher's Fayre from 12 tomorrow! Come on down and see us if you're curious. We look forward to seeing you there.

Thank you to everyone who came to our AGM! Our new committee for 2018-19 is as follows:

President: Milo Farragher-Hanks
Vice President: Katie Darling
Treasurer: Wendy Brooking
Secretary: Laura Crick
IT Officer: James Duncan

Unfortunately, nobody managed to find the correct answer to our last puzzle! The answer was: The man is measuring the room with an Acutape, an instrument which registers the dimensions based on laser technology.

This week we have a BONUS PUZZLE.

Three women stand together, each one wearing a swimsuit. Two women are sad and one is happy. Both the sad women are smiling, and the happy one is crying.

Why?

Please email your answers to [email protected] by 5pm on SUNDAY.

This week's puzzle:

A man is seen in an apartment, going from room to room. Each time he holds a small metal object to the floor and the walls.

What is he up to?

As always, email your solutions to [email protected] for the chance to win a prize!

Congratulations to Anthony Hickling, the winner of our prize for the second puzzle! His answer was:

“The solution is that her birthday is 31st December and the “current date” is Jan 1st
Therefore Joan was 27, 2 days ago, is currently 28, will turn 29 on 31st dec this year and will turn 30 on 31st of dec next year.”

Well done also to Josh Wood, Wendy Brooking and Liam McMenemie for getting the right answer!

The third puzzle will be posted next week.

Unfortunately, nobody correctly guessed our last fortnightly puzzle... the answer was a postman delivering letters to embassies!

Here's this fortnight's puzzle:

Two days ago, Joan was 27. She will be 30 next year. How is this possible?

First Fortnightly Puzzle!

We're going to be posting puzzles every two weeks on this page and in our emails. There will be a chance to win a prize for the first person to work out the correct solution, to be given at our events. Please either email your solution to [email protected] or private message the page (if you comment it it may ruin the fun for someone else!)

There is a man, whose job requires him to regularly visit 80 foreign countries. He does this every single day, is welcomed in all of them, and enters and leaves without going through Customs or Immigration. He does not even hold a passport.

Who is he?

Thanks to everyone who came to visit us at the Freshers Fayre yesterday! Hope to see you all at our first viewing on Mon 25th Sept where we'll be watching the episode of the BBC series which won the vote at our stall - The Hounds of Baskerville!

We're at the Freshers Fayre! Come find us at stall 171 in the Large Rehearsal Room! Membership is available for £3 and you can vote for what episode we're watching in week 2!

A very comprehensive and accurate list, and we're not just saying that because we're on it…

The best societies to join in St Andrews? One of the most important events of freshers week (apart from making friends and drinking alcohol, hopefully in that order) is the freshers fair where you sign up for clubs…

Thank you to everyone who came to our AGM last night! Our new committee for 2017/18 is:

President: Stephanie Melnick
Vice President: James Duncan
Treasurer: Rinske de Vries
Secretary: Katie Darling

We look forward to another year of viewings, murder mysteries and more!
