​Let's have a go at "competitive" riddling - winner stays on.
​I'll post a riddle - answers in spoiler tags please, whoever is first with the correct answer sets a new riddle.


Riddle 1:
This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious as to just how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so ordinary and plan that you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is highly unusual though. If you study it and think about it, you may find out, but I am not going to assist you in any way. You must do it without coaching. No doubt, if you study it, it will dawn on you. Who knows? Go to work and try your skill. Most can work this out in about half an hour.
