Good morning class, oh how I missed you all yesterday. Don't tell anyone or they will think I've gone soft in the head

Firstly my deepest thanks to Miss Sheba for deputising yesterday, she did a fantastic job. It was so kind of her to take on the mantle when I was drunk ill yesterday.

Today's Question

It is reasonably simple, I'm saving the difficult one for tomorrow. winkThere are a couple of possibilities, it may involve BODMAS or brackets, or both. Do your worst. wink

PS: Who has been in my bottom drawer? My gin water bottle has disappeared! ?

Ok, ok, I will have a word with Rosie when next I can take her out for a drive grin

That's REVERSE, Rosie, not SIXTH!!!

Why did you not go backwards??
BUMP

Marydoll Fri 24-Apr-20 20:45:02

The question stated the answer is not 6 and the ? did not represent a number.

I rest my case. Smug smile

Marydoll Fri 24-Apr-20 20:41:54

Callistemon, no pressure at all.
I will be here in spirit only.

It's just one less piece of work to correct. wink

Callistemon Fri 24-Apr-20 20:39:19

It's Saturday tommorer, Miss
Don't we get no break at all?

She's a slave driver, class!!

Callistemon Fri 24-Apr-20 20:37:29

I'd rather have a piece of Millionaire' shortbread than a man in a kilt.

Showing my age.

Callistemon Fri 24-Apr-20 20:36:16

Actually, just to be very picky, that is where my SIXTH gear is.

My car is very posh.
It's a Toyota Yaris, quite old.
But it has six gears.

Doodle Fri 24-Apr-20 20:19:14

I don beleeve you pantglas. Why was you stroking his chest wiv your fingers. ? ?

Beechnut Fri 24-Apr-20 20:17:27

Pantglas2 Fri 24-Apr-20 20:16:34

Doodle Fri 24-Apr-20 20:09:30

Ooh. Miss that looks yummy.

bathsheba I looked up his kilt but it was dark an I didn see nufink. It was a waist of muney.
pantglas I fought you said you was confiscating the picture coz it was rude. If it’s rude, why ave you pinned it up in yor locker? ?

Marydoll Fri 24-Apr-20 19:57:31

As a reward, I have left you all a square of millionaire's shortbread.
An extra piece for all those who didn't post the answers, so that others could have a go.
I have to say, it is pretty good!

Tomorrow's question is definitely harder, but I know you can do it.
Night, night class.
No going out on the razzle tonight, ?????you have extra school tomorrow, to make up for all the lost time this week, due to BAD behaviour.

Marydoll Fri 24-Apr-20 19:52:02

Well class, what on earth is going on! ?
I was held up at the off licence a meeting, sorry I'm late.

Where did that disgusting picture of that bare chested man in a skirt come from. blush. That must have been that supply teacher yesterday! He seems to be wearing a very large animal on his waist. wink

Question 1
EXPLANATION: Just a reminder that as per the order of operations in mathematics, the division operator is resolved before the addition and subtraction operators.

(4+4) – (4÷4) or 4- (4÷4) +4

Question 2

ANSWER: The letter R.

EXPLANATION: This is a common layout of a gear stick for a 5-speed manual transmission car.
I did say, the answer wasn't 6.

Myrtle, don't be picky, we don't all own six gear cars. sad

Callistemon Fri 24-Apr-20 19:07:00

Yeah!!

Six

Callistemon Fri 24-Apr-20 19:06:19

Well, the answer could be 6

It is 6 in my car and reverse is further over to the left

gillybob Fri 24-Apr-20 18:49:21

Callistemon Fri 24-Apr-20 18:45:23

No 2 -
reverse
I had to ask DH. My reverse is on the other side grin

No 1
(4+4) - (4÷4) = 7

willa45 Fri 24-Apr-20 16:13:58

Aww shucks! Gilly and Bathsheba, I always miss the good stuff!

willa45 Fri 24-Apr-20 16:09:17

Here I am!
Welcome back Miss Doll! Yesterday was a busy day and Miss Sheba shared a delicious cake! I got to cut it so I left a piece left for you in the bottom drawer but maybe not, since Gilly was trapped in there last night and she might have needed some sustenance. Love coming to this class, especially when there's plenty of booze goodies to be had.

(4+4) - (4/4) =7

Bathsheba Fri 24-Apr-20 15:54:07

Oh. My. God. Bring it with you to dinner tomorrow so I can see the February page. My friend's brother wore a kilt once to a party and said all the girls could look up his kilt if they paid him two and six. He got so much money, which he put in his sporran. Well at least, that's what he said was in his sporran, but I think there was something else making it bulge out a bit, cos there weren't that many girls there really.

I didn't have any money so I wasn't allowed to look. All my friends said he had no pants on shockshockshock.

But actually I didn't believe them, they were just saying that cos I hadn't been allowed a look.
