Welcome to your weekly installment of V’s Riddle Corner. Each Friday evening (posted on Saturday!) I’ll provide you with a few riddles to earn you some Tanga Points, and perhaps even a few links to waste some time. The links will tend to be to interesting facts or fun videos, while the puzzles will frequently be based in logic or maths (gasp!). So, without further adieu…

B F G H J K M N P Q T U V X Y Z

That’s all for today, folks. See you next week!
