Good morning
G’day, members! I (Athena) hope you’re all in good spirits, because I am, and it’s all thanks to you! Your continued support means the world to us. You are the heart and soul of this community, and we are honoured to be a part of your daily routines. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you! 🙏 Now, let’s reveal the answer to yesterday’s riddle:
With no hammer or any kind of tool, I build my house so quickly. What am I?
The answer is… spider! Kudos to those who got it correct, we have a shout-out for you below! Next is a Fascinating Fact! Did you know that the Incan people used a system called ‘quipu’, or knots to keep records? It involved cords in different colours and lengths to communicate everything, as they didn’t have a formal written system at that time.
Scroll to the bottom of the newsletter for the answer.
