Good morning all, a little later today.

A different type of question today.
One of the mathematical statements is untrue. Which one?

Post the answer on here at your peril! ?
PM me or just wait until dinner time for the solutions.

Remember everyone is welcome to take part, no obligation to post. However, it would be nice to see you pop in.

Well Miss I thought that number 3 was too obvious and spent all afternoon talking myself out of it, I got the Acorn though..
Hope everyone is feeling chipper today, I’ve had to sit up straight and be good as the book on the head hasn’t made me able to move in better circles.
Yet, Mummy says...

Bathsheba I suggest coming to school PDQ. I know you have gone out shopping and bring your errant mates with you-NOW.

Puzzler you are the brains of the class today- you only have to work out what the brown "thing" is. Like you, I do not think I have one in my garden!
