    A puzzle for you:D

    A piece of string is attached to the corner of a cube. The cube is suspended by the string and lowered into a bucket of water so that exactly half of the cube is submerged. What shape is made by the intersection of the cube with the surface of the water?

    An eight pack that thinks it is a six pack:T. And then potentially compares against a 6 pack at M. Small wonder I missed it if the descriptions aren't the same:rotfl:.

    Unless this is a simple thing like a typo mistake in the OP. I can only see a.com showing the 8 pack so the description appearing on the APG should be the same as that. It seems to me there is a mistake in the OP and it has been copied as (6x330ml) but in fact it's 8x330ml. Comparing against 8x330 at M, which obviously wasn't good enough price - albeit a lot cheaper than A - for me to notice it:o:rotfl:.

    Interesting though. I think the OP has accidentally copied it incorrectly? Thus just causing me much pondering wondering if it is an eight pack rather than 6:rotfl::rotfl:.

    So can this not be replicated savvy?

    Two Irish men were sitting in a pub when the Tour de France came onto the television. The two lads watched the cyclists for a while when one asked:

    Why do they do that? Go on them bikes for miles and miles, up and down the hills, round the bends. Day after day, week after week. No matter if it’s icy, raining, snowing, hailing . . . why would they torture themselves like that?

    It’s all for the money, says the other. The winner gets half a million pounds.

    I see, says the first, But why do the others do it?

    Don’t come here with your puzzles, trying to distract us from your reckless abandon and non-Elite ways ...:p.
