One i heard a while ago - hope i can remeber it right!!
3 people book into a hotel and share the cost of a room
When they book in they are told the cost is £30
so they all chip in a tenner each.
After a few hours the managers remebers that there's a special offer on and the room should have been £25 so he gives the porter the £5 to give back to the guests.
On the way to the room the porter thinks the guests will find it hard to separate the £5 between the 3 of them so does them a favour and pockets £2 so each guest gets a £1 each.
So all in all the guests have paid a total of £9 pound each - £27 the porter has £2 a total of £29 - where's the missing pound from the original £30?

There is no missing pound: The Manager has £25, the porter has £2 and the guests have a pound each. Total £30
The wording of the question is deceptive. The £2 that the porter has is included in the £27 the guests have paid, so there's only £3 to be accounted for and that's their change.

The extra person is the dark shirted guy on the back right.
When the picture swaps it round you will notice that the person on the front left doesn't have anything added ontop of his head but there is definately something taken away.
The result in this is that the right hand side doens't go all the way over and creates a new character.
Hope that helps.
sorry double posted

It can Sharon. As the top of the head is just a very small part missing you can't notice it. As the person who should replace that top of the head doesn't you are left over with somebody who is missing an equally small part (on his shoes). You don't have an extra person it is just that two people are not complete.
The swapping is not equal. Five people on the left move over to the very far right. Seven people on the right move over but not completely to the left. This is why there is an extra person.
Its hard to describe and I really can't spend all day editing the picture to show it step by step. Well unless I'd get something for it.
lol ok they knick a little bit from several of the other guys
Still good though lol
Is it me or does that guy on the top left (black shirt) have a hard on?
lol i have noticed that.....
Wondered if any of you would! :lol:
Call that a hard on???

Well that guy you point out has drawstrings on his shorts and not a hard-on, so it must be you. Personally I don't usually have to ask ther people whether it's me that has a hard-on or if it's someone else!
Weirdo! loon

do you mean hard one ?
It is a misleading and irrelevant calculation.
Although 9*3 =27 and the waiter has kept 2 it is not a valid calculation as there is no reason to add the two values together.
The waiter gets to the table with 5, 2 in his pocket, he gives 3 to the women. 25 with the manager. All this adds up to 30.
