Does anyone here enjoy logical puzzles? I find it an excellent stimulant, especially while at work. Simple (yet not so simple) puzzles like figuring out the next in a series (o, t, t, f, f, __ ) or Lateral puzzles (Why are manhole covers round, and not square?)

Sometimes it takes a few days to crack a tough one. If anyone here is interested and enjoys these, we can post puzzles for each other to solve - even if the one posting does not have the solution, we can try to solve it together.

So, anyone game?

Not yet, but with the current market situation I wouldnt bet against it.

A plane maintains an average speed of 225mph from London to New York. It then returns from New York to London at an average speed of 180mph. What is the average speed for the entire journey?
