< ! !! !!! Riddles !!! !! ! >

This is one I learnt many moons ago at school....

As I was going to St Ives
I met a man with seven wives

And every wife had seven sacks
And every sack had seven cats
And every cat had seven kits

Kits, cats, sacks, wives
How many were going to St Ives?
 
going to St. Ives...one.

what gets wetter the more it dries?
A towel.


Riddles..
What grows down before it grows up??


What's the beginning of the end
the end of time and space
the beginning of eternity and
the end of the human race?

Why do women shake hands sitting down? Whenever i shake a ladies hand, they dont go find a chair :D :p

Its an old joke.

In days past, when people would be seated at a dinner party or sitting at a social gathering , it was considered proper manners for a man to stand up to greet and shake a person's hand. A women was not expected to stand.

If it needs more clarity, contact the writer of that joke, Benny Hill.:)

No more Tolkien riddles, get your own.
Haven't heard the St. Ives one in a while though.

As for the train, I'll admit I looked back. I'll say 12, the train had to stop for the first peple to get on.
