We are a diverse group from all walks of life. Our passion is to write; to the best of our ability and sometimes beyond. We meet on the 2nd and 4th Thursday each month, to read and critique our work in friendly, open discussion. However, the Group is not solely about entertaining ourselves. We support THE ESSEX AND HERTS AIR AMBULANCE by producing and selling anthologies of our work. So far we have raised in excess of £9,700, by selling our books at venues throughout Essex.

The Riddler
Three prisoners are condemned to death. The Prison Warden explains that as a cruel joke he will allow one to go free… The remaining two will be executed.
The Warden produces three black and two white discs. He fastens one to each of their backs, there are two discs remaining.
(For your benefit alone, I will reveal that he is left with one black & one white disc.)
Each prisoner can see the discs on the backs of his fellow prisoners.
The Warden tells them: the first man to leave the compound and correctly identify the disc on his back will go free, while the other two will be executed.
They are allowed to speak to each other and ask questions but nothing said can be trusted… Yet one man left the compound and correctly named his disk.
HOW?
