Sunday 17 Oct 10

Yesterday being a holiday on account of Ayudha Puja there are no papers today and I decided to give the blog a rest. However last evening Kishore posted a language puzzle to keep those who are inclined, busy; the same is reproduced below, those interested may mail him directly with the solutions at kishoremrao@hotmail.com, DO NOT POST repeat DO NOT POST your solutions in the comments below this post

Here goes:

Late at the gate

Two words (three in one of the cases) which rhyme but with some other words in between, as in the subject line of this mail, described in a cryptic way:

1. Eager, to have formicidae in the trousers
2. Elite, rather than hoi polloi
3. Small thing, beginning of something larger
4. Any means possible
5. AWAC
6. Actual meaning of something
7. Unrealistic promise of rewards
8. SOB, more politely
9. Warm and comfortable
10. Extremely favourable offer
11. Safe, reliable and sure
12. Go on a buying spree
13. Keep your parking ticket visible

Have fun
Please mail your answers to kishoremrao@hotmail.com so that the suspense/fun continues for the others.

Have a great weekend.

Kishore
