What Am I? (1)
I am seen as larger then I really am with these things on my head,
I am brown in colour often with a shade of white or black spots,
I live in the wild in the cold and chase penguins for fun,
When in the season I race with my friends following the stars,
Pulling with us a sledge around the world from chimney to chimney,
Oh what a weight we have to pull each year!
Question:

Solution of last edition
The Guard's Password Solution
There was a fairly mixed set of answers appearing with the last puzzle however
the correct answer was Five.
The first person to visit the guard was told the word 'Twelve' and gave the
answer 'Six'.
The second was told 'Six' and answered 'Three'
At this stage many people thought it was simply half the value of what the guard
said; however.
The third person was told 'Five' to which they replied 'Four'.
At this stage a pattern begins to arise - Do you see it?
Let's break down the letters.
T-w-e-l-v-e
S-i-x
F-i-v-e
Each word is made up of a number of characters which in turn was the answer
given.
The poor man was told the number 'Seven'
S-e-v-e-n
Which consists of five characters so the answer was Five.
And so for the prizes?
Congratulations to...
