Puzzle 393 



We have been quite lucky with the weather recently, it has got steadily warmer each day, over the last five days.

By this, I mean that the temperature rose by the same amount each day.

The average temperature was 2 degrees, and I know it froze on two occasions.

I also know the product of the temperatures was over 500 but below 2,000 and each temperature was an integer.

What were the last 5 temperatures?

Clown Of The Year - Logic Puzzles

The four clowns in this puzzle all competed for the much-prized 'Clown of the Year' award recently. There were 30 clowns in total who entered the competition and each had to make the judges laugh.

From the clues below, can you work out each clown's name, the town he or she came from, what place each clown was awarded and the most comical moment of each clown's routine?

The Budsworth clown finished one place lower than Strumpy who is not from Witfield.
The judges roared with laughter as one clown cycled across a tightrope, wobbled, screamed and fell head first into a pool of water. He finished two places below Boo Boo who was not from Witfield.
The clown who finished in 7th place lost points when her big red nose fell off during her manic routine. This involved being hit with a giant rubber mallet by her assistant who was supposed to hit her on the shoulder but unfortunately had something in his eye at the time and accidentally hit her in the face instead.
Tambo was disappointed when his usually masterful custard pie antics failed to impress the judges sufficiently to secure the award. He was not the clown from Stockville whose final placing was lower than the Shrimpton clown. Clowns   : Boo Boo, Grego, Strumpy, Tambo
Towns    : Budsworth, Shrimpton, Stockville, Witfield
Position : 2nd, 4th, 5th, 7th
Routine  : Custard Pie, Flower, Rubber Mallet, Unicycle
