Can you name two English language words beginning with EE?

Agreed, and not one that an Irish fool would ever work out. And if they did think of it, they might find it was a very slippery beast to keep in mind!

I said it was Eesy.
This one's more complex!
Choose one letter from each of the words in the left hand column which will still leave a word and, when put in the right-hand column, will form a new word.
Write that letter in the centre column. When finished, the centre column will spell a word.
1. STRAY ( )TRIP
2. CHAT ( ) SOCK
3. BRAIN ( ) PLOT
4. SPOIL ( ) SOON
5. SMELL ( ) SEAR
6. FAIR ( ) LUNCH
7. STAID ( ) MORAL
8. WHEAT ( ) FATHER

Ahoy there, landlubbers, its time for another little teaser.
A man spends $21 in a liquor store. The whisky costs twice as much as the beer, which costs twice as much as the soda water.
How much was the beer?
