My, oh my, how quickly has this week zoomed by? G’day, members and a big welcome to our favourite day of the week: Friday! I (Vella) think a well-deserved trip to the movies could be on the cards. There are some fantastic movies showing today, including Barbie and Oppenheimer. Speaking of which, Maddie and April watched Barbie earlier this week and absolutely loved it! I’m excited to watch it, hopefully, with the rest of the lovely SDC team! How about you? What are you looking forward to this weekend? Share them with us here!
Right, onto today's newsletter! We’re kicking things off with our last riddle of the week:
Little Tommy Tittletat took two Ts, to tie two ups to two tall trees, to torment the terrible little tat. How many T's in all of that?
How's that for a Friday brain teaser? Take a moment or two to wrestle with that one. You know the drill, folks–if you've got the answer, jump onto the riddle masters thread here. Answer correctly, and you'll get a shout-out in tomorrow's newsletter.
