Hello,

Today I launch my riddle, where I give you a riddle, and you solve it, without the use of Google and other things that give the answer at the touch of the button and post it here. I will say Yay or nay and then post the next.

My first riddle is:

A man rides into town on Friday, and stays for three days, but leaves on Friday. How did he do it? Answered by DVB Cornwall and Beep

Riddle No.2:

Feed me and I live, give me drink and I die. What am I?
Answered by Beep

Riddle No.3:

What won't break if you throw it off the highest building in the world, but will break if you place it in the ocean?
Answered by Beep & Bail

Riddle No.4:

Two sentries were on duty outside a barracks. One faced up the road to watch for anyoe approaching from the North. The other looked down the road to see if anyone approached from the South. Suddenly one of them said to the other, "Why are you smiling?"

How did he know that his companion was smiling?

Answered by dosxuk & Beep

Riddle No.5:
I turn polar bears white
And I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
And girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
And normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
And make your champagne bubble.
If you squeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.

Answered by Beep, again!

Riddle No.6:

You heard me before,
Yet you hear me again.
Then I die, 'Til you call me again
What am I?
Answered by Dosxuk & Beep

Riddle No.7:

Can you explain this to me - I must be closer to a Harvard student than a nursery pupil as it makes no sense:

The beast of burden upon which he travelled into and/or left Town was named 'Friday'. If not both then he either travelled in or left town on a friday, otherwise the day might be irrelevant to the riddle.

The horse was indeed named Friday

I didn't expect to go to my next riddle so soon, but I move over to another now.

Conjuring another from my mind, the next riddle.

Feed me and I Live, give me Drink and I Die. What Am I?

What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps?

Correct

I'm sure you originally wrote, a plant!

Riddle No.3:

What won't break if you throw it off the highest building in the world, but will break if you place it in the ocean?

Let's hope this one takes longer.
