Puzzle

Hello all,

Sorry for the sporadic updates lately. Midyear is a normally busy period for businesses. I will be on a short hiatus from blogging (here and at my personal site http://suhaimiramly.wordpress.com) until mid June.

My apologies for those waiting for Part 2 of the Taik Lembu article. It will come in due time, Insya Allah.

In the meantime, I leave you with the following puzzle (click on the image to embiggen):

    aku tau camner nak approach the question pun sebab pernah try yg microsoft college puzzle challenge tu. tapi yg tu mmg hardcore la, took me days to solve some of them, but mostly aku give up and tengok jawapan haha. puzzles are fun, though.
