Annoying puzzle time
« on: 18 February 2011, 22:28:05 »

You know those church fete/local football club charity fundraising sheet things you get sometimes with puzzles that equate to numbers.

For example:-

D in a W  = 7 (days in a week)
S on a F P P = 7 (sides on a 50 pence piece)
W on a T = 3 (wheels on a trike)
H of the A = 4 (horsemen of the apocalypse)

and similar.

Currently stuck on a couple.  Should be single numbers (i.e. 1 - 9, including zero).  Anyone?

P in a P
F in the G
E to ES

edit - F in the G most likely Fingers in the Glove (Either 4 or 5, if you say that a thumb is not technically a finger, I suppose...)  Just got it as typing...   :)

Thought that too, but really looking for 0 - 9 as a result, not 100....   :y

Anyone who has ever been to a sleepover meet that I have been at will attest to there being no shortage of malt.  ;)
