In addition to the answers given so far, Meg can be 39 and Tom 93, making Phil 27 and Ed 13.


RE: Puzzle a Day! - Proserpina - 08-10-2021

Or Meg 48, Tom 84, Phil 18, Ed 16

The Answer on the Pad is
Meg = 45
Tom = 54
Phil is 4 and a half
Ed is 15.

What phrase is represented here?

2          LATE  LATE


RE: Puzzle a Day! - Admin - 08-10-2021

Is two relevant?

Late-late as I know it means arriving late when it is late, if that makes sense. Sure you are looking for something else though

Like too late


RE: Puzzle a Day! - Proserpina - 09-10-2021

Veggie, are you sure it didn't say that Meg, Tom and Phil's digits were all the same but some in reverse? That's the only way that answer would be more accurate than any of the others. Maybe it just wasn't a well-written puzzle by the creators!


RE: Puzzle a Day! - Proserpina - 09-10-2021

If only the number was a four - it could be "Too late by far"

But I'm puzzled by the 2, and especially that it's a small 2 too. And the LATES are quite big. So perhaps size matters here... Hmm.


RE: Puzzle a Day! - Proserpina - 09-10-2021

Ohhhhhhhh! Yes, size does matter! Well, I've got it now, but it may be [the answer].

Two large lattes? Smile

I've got the real answer though.

You've spotted it Pros, well done.
