Emma Connects: Bobby's 100th Puzzle!

Get your thinking hats on with the 100th edition of Bobby Seagull's mind-bending monthly puzzle, which will feature in our next full edition of Emma Connects on 31st July.

Bobby's latest challenge (No. 99) takes inspiration from the Wimbledon Tennis Championships, and there's still time to have a go! Can you identify the reason why an imaginary bespoke commemorative ring might be made using the three chosen materials? The answer will be revealed on 31st July.

If you like Maths and want more puzzles, you can visit Bobby's YouTube channel, where he and Susan Okereke post every Tuesday and Thursday. More challenges can also be found at the end of each chapter of Bobby's book, The Life-Changing Magic of Numbers.

Solutions to all of Bobby's previous puzzles may be found in the PDF link below.

The Emmanuel Society invites members of the College to join the Master; Dr Sarah Bendall, Development Director and Fellow, and friends old and new for a convivial evening of catching up on all things Emmanuel and beyond.

We’re privileged to be able to welcome members to dine at the magnificent Merchant Taylors’ Hall, a 610-year-old medieval guild hall in the heart of historic York.

The evening will start with a pre-dinner reception, followed by a three-course dinner and great conversation into the evening, and will conclude with coffee and handmade chocolates. The Master will share updates on recent goings-on at Emma and his thoughts on future developments at your college.

A delectable menu is being prepared for the evening. If you have any special dietary requirements, please note these when you book.

You are welcome to attend with up to three guests. We’d love to see you there.
