• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

If you enjoy guessing book titles from visual puzzles there's a challenging little number available at this website - the National Book Tokens Site - (with good prizes). Only UK/ROI I'm afraid.
 
3/20 and I'm already feeling stumped! Ingenious, though. I'll keep trying, though there are a few I'm certain I'll never get because they mean nooooothing to me. It'll be intriguing, whenever the contest finishes, to see the answers.

ETA: sudden inspiration, make that 7/20. One of them a pun so bad I groaned... :D They have last year's puzzles up too: so far I can manage 20, it's just a shame they're spread out between three puzzles ;)

I got 6/20. :confused: I was convinced one of them had to be titled camouflage zebra... It wasn't until my brain realised what I was insanely mashing in the box that I finally remembered what it was actually called. :p
 
Hahahahahahaha :D

I'm up to 9 but now I'm reeeeeally stuck.

I'm doing better on the older ones, which is typical of my luck :p :D
