Puzzle 387 



Yesterday I was asked to buy some stamps.

Stamps, in the land of BrainBashers, are available in 2p, 7p, 10p, 15p and 20p denominations.

For three types of stamp, I was asked to buy five of each.

For the other two types of stamps, I was asked to buy six of each.

Unfortunately, I forgot which I was supposed to buy five of and which to buy six of.

Luckily I had been given the exact money required to buy the stamps, £3.00 and the shopkeeper was able to give me the correct stamps.

Which stamps did I buy?

My BrainBashers electronic world atlas has developed another fault.

I listed six countries, and how far away each was from England, and here are the results:
Spain     14,000 miles
Fiji      12,000 miles
Germany   18,000 miles
Brazil    16,000 miles
India     16,000 miles
Iceland   --,--- miles

How far away did it list Iceland as?
