Another week and the search goes on. There was no winner of our super Lotto Jackpot which this week stood at €10,500. However, the winner of this week’s Lucky Dip is Robert Lackey. Congratulations Robert who wins the prize of €25. Last week I set you a riddle: “I’m tall when I’m young and short when I get old. What am I.” The answer and you’ll be kicking yourself – a candle! This week’s Riddle: “What is it that is full of holes but can still hold water?” Good luck with that one. I hope you get the correct answer and we get that elusive jackpot winner. On This Day: On this day in 1903 the University of Dublin (Trinity) agreed to award degrees to women! We may still have a way to go but things have certainly improved since 1903. There is an interesting footnote to this. At the time George Salmon was Provost of Trinity and he was very against allowing women into the college. In fact, he said, “Women will be allowed into this college over my dead body.” He got his wish because he died in 1904 and is buried on the college grounds, so today women (and men) do walk over his dead body. Be careful what you wish for. Of course, that doesn’t apply to wishing you’ll scoop the jackpot of €10,600 next week.
