Rise and shine, members! Welcome to yet another fantastic Thursday! I (Vella) hope your day started off on the right foot. If you woke up today with a few aches like me, that's alright. Maybe it's a sign to look after yourself a bit more. Remember, giving your body the care it deserves is essential. Before I get too carried away, let's get on with the answer to yesterday’s tricky riddle:
A professional fisherman caught 30 fish during a 5-day tournament. Each day, he caught three more fish than the day before. How many fish did the fisherman catch on the first day?
And the answer is... He didn't catch any fish on the first day, but he caught three on the second, six on the third, nine on the fourth, and 12 on the fifth! If you got it correct, check out the end of the newsletter for your well-deserved shout-out!
Now, it's time for a Fascinating Fact! Did you know that the shortest war in history happened between Britain and Zanzibar on August 27, 1896? Zanzibar surrendered after 38 minutes!
