Reaching 300,000 of Australia's Wise and Wonderful Every Day

Saturday Edition | AM

Good morning

Hello members! I (Sethia) hope the sunshine is as bright in your part of Australia as it is in mine today. I’m preparing to spend the rest of the day with the lovely SDC team! Nothing brightens my mood more than being around the kindest people I know. Now, it’s time to solve yesterday’s puzzle!

Alone, I am 24th. With a friend, I am 20. With another friend, I am unclean. What am I?

The answer is the letter ‘X’! If you got it correct or you want to know why, see the shout-out below! And for today’s ‘What Would the Grandkids Say?’ segment, we’re decoding ‘caught in 4K’, which means you’ve been caught red-handed. The ‘4K’ refers to a high display resolution, or another way to say that someone has crystal-clear evidence of you doing something questionable!
