I Have a Headache

A friend sent this little monster to me, and it's been driving me nuts.



I've managed to figure out 27 of them, but the remaining 6 have eluded me. Have a go...

I got 21 of them right off the bat. The others...well, let's not talk about the others.

This is a Mensa Puzzle?? I got 21 in 15 minutes. I kept thinking, once you get one word - such as D for Day- it could be applied to the other D's. Anyhow, it did not give me a headache-because I figured this puzzle must come from some other country I know not much about.

And don't forget 88 K on a P.

Well, it turns out this puzzle came from South Africa, which explains why so many people were having a hard time with parts of it.

Here are answers to some of the more difficult ones. If you need help with any others, leave a comment and I'll provide the answers.

16: 100 cents in a Rand
19: 13 = unlucky for some (or so I'm told)
28: 23 pairs of chromosomes in the human body
30: 9 provinces in South Africa
31: 6 bats to an out in cricket??
