Monday Edition
G'Day Members! Happy Monday! Another beginning to another week, how lucky are we? We hope you all had a lovely weekend and are ready to jump into the week ahead. If you're new here, then you might not know why we love our Monday's so much and the answer is simple: We get to challenge you lot with the first riddle of the week! Today's riddle is thanks to member Dennis R.
What English word retains the same pronunciation even when you take away 4 of its 5 letters?
Now that's a riddle, eh? It’s a nice challenging one for us all to kickstart the week with! As always, if you think you know the answer, post it on our forum here and if you get the answer correct, we will give you a shout out in tomorrow's newsletter.

It doesn’t matter if you get it wrong, because either way you’re giving your brain a good little workout and that’s the most important thing.
