The task is about a lazy sailor, for clues which you'll have to think about it!

Many people prefer to make a list of things and then execute them all in one day to use the remaining time to rest. Here's the sailor from new puzzles on the Website was not that lazy, more rational, and therefore had all in one day. Try to solve this incredibly interesting puzzle about the sailor Billy.





The old Navy man Billy "Hook" Trelawney, like all sailors, an extra step on land without stepping in and out of the house, only after accumulating a few things at once. One morning he went to Nantucket with ten dollars, and returned in the evening, but with a good hundred in my pocket.

The day he managed to do a lot of cases, bought a new tie in the store, "the Sailor and ray" in the store "a Bird in the chest," took a bit of millet for your pet parrot — thin lover and connoisseur of the choicest curses the sea; then went to the hairdresser, and got his salary, which the whaling Museum puts him at city Bank. Banks in Nantucket at this time of year are only open on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Hairdressing, on the contrary, don't work on Saturdays, and the shop "a bird in the chest" on Thursday and Friday was closed.

So what day of the week Billy "Hook" went to the city?

Response



Old Billy visited in the city Tuesday. The first thing we cross off Thursday and Friday as on these days the shop "a Bird in the chest." Further exclude and Saturday — closed Barber. Billy apparently paid, which were given on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays at the Bank. But since the last two days are excluded, remains the Tuesday — only this day and opened a Bank, and a Barber shop and "a Bird in the chest."
