Now call me silly but when I'm presented with a challenge I don't like to be defeated. Early week a colleague of mine brought in a challenge. She had been trying it with friends the previous evening and was completely stuck. The puzzle is an anagram.
Using the letters:
O N R F G S D I T N O T H W E C E K
Make a well known phrase that matches the words: 5, 3, 2, 3, 5.
_ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _
Without cheating, of course. It's certainly in English.
It took me over a week to finally get it and I admit I did cheat by looking at some word lists auto-generated from the letters. I was looking for 5 letter words that could go together and then filled in the middle words. But you might find it quicker by selecting the smaller words first.
It took about a week of lunch hours and "fag breaks" to finally crack this one and I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulder!
For those of you who just can't find it, highlight the following for the answer:
[Wrong End Of The Stick]
Just taken me 5 minutes to do... and honestly i didn't cheat. :0)
Next one ;0)
