yep, easy, the artist killed the butler with the dentist,
ahh shinbone, maybe I'll try again in the morning
ok - here's a good one (IMO) - anyone played Cluedo ?

A bloke gets advice each day of the week (Monday through Friday) from people he meets.( bank manager, priest, girlfriend, drunk mate, sober mate).
Each suggests he invests in something different, (bank, BHP, MBL, jewellery, fishfarm) - and each suggests a different amount. (Nil, $10K, 20K, 30K, 50K)
1. His Bank Manager told him to do nothing because his bank account was so low that he couldn't afford the brokerage.:nosympath
2. The day he met the bank manager wasn't Tuesday, because he remembers he enjoyed Tuesday.
3. His Priest told him on Friday to invest in Fish Farms.
4. His girlfriend told him to invest $20K more than his sober friend; :bunny: and ..
5. his drunk friend told him to invest $20K more than his girlfriend.:alcohol:
6. In fact his sober friend was the same as his drunk friend, just that he'd had three days to sober up. (i.e. he met him again 3 days later if you get the drift)
7. He bought $50K worth of jewellery.
8. He spent less on BHP than he did on MBL.
Question is :-
When did he buy BHP?
Monday = drunk friend = ABC = $V
Tuesday = girlfriend = DEF = $W
Wednesday = bank manager = bank account = nil
Thursday = sober friend = $X
Friday = Priest = fishfarm = $Y
Monday = drunk friend = ABC = $50K
Tuesday = girlfriend = DEF = $30K
Wednesday = bank manager = bank account = $nil
Thursday = sober friend = GHI = $10K
Friday = Priest = fishfarm = $20K
Hence when did he buy BHP? = ThursdayMonday = drunk friend = jewellery = $50K
Tuesday = girlfriend = MBL = $30K
Wednesday = bank manager = bank account = $nil
Thursday = sober friend = BHP = $10K
Friday = Priest = fishfarm = $20K

From clue 1, girl 3, whose ex is Andy, is not currently dating either him or Mike,
while Hugo is now with Daniel's ex (clue 4)

Therefore Daniel must be!
