We had a conversation, and like so many of our conversations it took an unexpected detour. And so we ended up travelling along a byroad of riddles we both knew from childhood. This then led us to devise some riddles of our own, with the added rule that they must be six words each—no more, no less. See if you, Dear Reader, can guess the answers!
PS: It was quite tricky to come up with these by the way!
Dry when wet, soaked when parched.

I’m going to say ‘nothing’. (And I didn’t actually work this out because I was asked this riddle literally two days ago. After faffing about forever, they finally put me out of my misery and gave me the answer. I KNEW I should have gotten it!) 😛

Thank you because the suspense is hard to bare (or is it bear? I never know the right spelling of this word)😁

I think it may be ‘bear’ in this instance, otherwise someone could end up a little bit nude with the other spelling! 😛

I love a good riddle and this is a good one. My only thought is: a towel dries when wet and you parch it in a tumble dryer when its soaked. I suspect I’m wrong but I have nothing else.
