Quiz (delayed from Friday as I wasn't in the office)

[Sir Pissalot]

I'm thinking along the lines of printing.

Used to work in the industry. The paper folding is what we used to call a mock-up.

Got font as well plus some edited copy

Also thinking  maybe church or Alice in Wonderland, though!

Is Pic 1 The Philosophers Stone?

I wouldn't have said so.  I think it's just a generic image of an island.

Does 'island' have any kind of link to printing?

Fold

[Sir Pissalot]

 Well done!


Elsewhere, I think the guy in Q4 was in The Sopranos but I can't remember his name.

[Bob's Orange]

Fold

Blah blah is correct and his reasoning is just about there.

4D, fold isn't correct. The actual correct answer for the paper clue is one I am not familiar with!

Any answers around Bob?

14. might be something to do with them not having a London postcode?  Or being the furthest boroughs to the North/South?East/West?  Admittedly this is based entirely on knowing that Enfield and Croydon are far away from London and the Croydon has CR postcode!

17.   Which American short story tells of a man who fell asleep for 20 years?  Rip Van Winkle

18.   Andy said to Bill, "When we last met, our ages were both prime numbers, and when I was a quarter of the age I am now, you were that age plus half the age your mother would have been thirty years previous to when she was six times the age you would have been when I was half your age". Bill said to Andy "I'm off down the pub". How old were Andy and Bill the last time they met?   Andy and Bill were 2 and 5 years old respectively the last time they met. If A and B are Andy and Bill's present ages and a and b are their ages when Andy was half Bill's age then

B - 3A/4 = (A/4) + (6b - 30)/2

Since their ages have always had the same difference we have

B - A = 3b - 15 = b - a

and since 2a = b then a = 3 and b = 6. So their ages differ by 3. Since all primes except 2 are odd and differ by an even number we can only have 2 and 5, Bill being the older of the two. The mother plays no part in the problem!
