Sorry, but I can't see it. Call me thick, but no. Surely, if you're mentioning the words "my father's son," then you've got to be looking at a picture of yourself, if you have no brothers or sisters, because "my father's son" is me and "that man" (therefore, myself) is also me...I know what I mean anyhow - just a bit hard to put into words.
Take care
Bri
ps I've got a cracker coming up for all you brainboxes out there.

I was the same Bri it wouldn't make sense to me for a while. You are not as you have stated saying that the man in the picture is your fathers son. What you are saying that the man in the picture's father is your fathers son. That man's father is my fathers son........Keep saying this and it will come to you...........Gerry.

Yep Gerry, it was tormenting me, but when the penny dropped - just after I did my post - I was on the way to pick our girls up from school and this is the first chance I had to get back on. I was going to say more or less the same thing (ish). As you say, I was assuming that the bloke in the picture was me. Just goes to show...never assume.
Take care
Bri
Gonna get you back, but good, with my riddle (dissolves into cackles of maniacal laughter.........)

You are right Kev..........That riddle has caused more arguments than enough............My eldest girl now 44 years of age was given that puzzle along with the rest of her then class as a study in primary school and her teacher got it wrong also...............Gerry.
