If you concentrate it should take about 10 - 15 minutes to solve......... Einstein's Riddle! There are 5 houses in 5 different colors. In each house lives a person with a different nationality. The 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or drink the same beverage. The question is: Who owns the fish? Hints: * The Brit lives in the red house. * The Swede keeps dogs as pets. * The Dane drinks tea. * The green house is on the left of the white house. * The green homeowner drinks coffee. * The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds. * The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill. * The man living in the center house drinks milk. * The Norwegian lives in the first house. * The man who smokes Blend lives next to the one who keeps cats. * The man who keeps the horse lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill. * The owner who smokes Bluemaster drinks beer. * The German smokes prince. * The Norwegian lives next to the blue house. * The man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water. Einstein wrote this riddle during the 19th century. He said 98% of the world could not solve it. Its not hard, you just need to pay attention ...................................... |

I suppose you all got the answer to this test? It really isn't that difficult if you have a pen and paper. Those who messaged me and said the "German" owns the fish, are of course correct. Well done. Regards JD |

But we've already established it was a German with a fish.

Well I can't deduce the logic of either of those answers, but then again, what's new. 
But is the answer that the wife and the daughter are the same person?
