harry hayes Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Not meant to be the worlds best poem, but hopefully easy read and puzzling. Try it with cards; coins;or just in your head. ABDUL'S CAMELS. Abdul had seventeen racing camels, Which were worth their weight in gold; I'll give them to my children, As I'm getting very old. To the eldest he left half his stock, A third and a ninth to the other two; But part camels can no longer race, Ripe Arab curses flew. Old Abdul was a wise man, And borrowed one for a spare; Eighteen camels; nine is half; Six and two to the other pair. Nine,plus six, and then add two, That's seventeen camels once again; Hump the odd one back to the lender, All it needed was a brain. ------------------------------ Thanks for reading Happy days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Sid Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 would have been better had you sent him a message with the phone number instead of putting in the forum main page. all the world and his wife now know it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Harry, once you know Alan has read and got your phone number then edit your post and delete your number. Like Evils said it's not advisable to display your personal number on forums and it's not like having it in a phone directory as anyone anywhere, including unscrupulous 'watchers' from all corners of the world, can see it on here If yours/Algy's PM messages aren't getting through make sure your forum message inbox is not full as it only has a certain amount of allowed storage space.
