I always had that problem in exams (RTFQ). You would think I would have learnt by now. However, I did ask for clarification on what mile he wanted to know, and he already knew the answer, so why ask it? He must be an ex-copper, they always ask questions they know the answer to. For example, "Do you know how fast you were going?" or "Didn't you see me there?" or "Do you know how old that young lady is?"
Oh, oh, I know his first answer: 73!
Sorry Alan, is there too much detail in my posts?
