Assume the ball costs 5p so if the bat is £1 MORE it is £1.5p, together ithey will be a total of £1.10
 
But couldnt the ball cost 10p? The bat cost 1£ more so total is £1,10....or am i missing summut?

I love it when the mrs does that to me , it means she fully accepts that i have no idea what she is talking about and so she won't bother shouting at me when i do it anyway :icon-biggrin:
 
I know what you mean - she has told me time & time again how to load the dishwasher and how to work the washing machines....both I have totally failed to get to grips with!
 
I know how to work the washing machine she just can't grasp the concept that if it can't go in a boil wash with everything else then it was no good to me in the first place , so i'm banned :lol:

Here's a head's up though did you know they keep GOOD knives in the cutlery drawer ?

I found that out after heating one on the hob to melt my headlight housing ........ my ears are still hurting :oops:
 
lol, Its me who does the cooking in this house, its safer! I once had a new Japanese super sharp knife - be careful of that I say as she washed it up by hand (not allowed in dishwasher - ) 3 seconds later blood everywhere............
