- Riddles 1th 7 - 1938
1 Why is a plum-cake like the ocean
Ans Because it contains many currants.
2 What is taken from you before you get it
And Your portrait.
3 Name a common miracle in Ireland
Ans Waking the dead.
4 How does a sailor know there is a man in the moon. Because he has been to see.
5 What does a football do when kicked up.
Ans It stops in the air for a while and looks round.
6 Why is an umbrella like a pancake
Ans Because it is seldom seen after lent.
7 What is the best way to make a coat last
Ans Make the trousers and vest first.
8 When may a man be said to breakfast in bed.
Ans When he takes a roll before rising.
9 As round as an apple as flat as a pan half it a woman and half it a man
And A penny.
Patch upon patch without any stitches riddle me that and I'll by you a pair of breeches
Ans A cabbage
