Stellas ? How common  ;D

With a bottle of the Balvenie Founders Reserve Single Malt ? Maybe 6 0r 7 hours.

Clear headed ? 2 hours 56 minutes and 20 seconds.

I think that"s what"s happened to this guy"s wife!

"it takes 1 man 3 mins to clean 1 square ft"

EHHH??? WTF is he using, a fine art brush?

As it"s HIM doing the cleaning up, I"m assuming it"s the mess he"s made from shooting his wife! At 3 mins, I"m also assuming he"s collecting all the brain matter using tweezers.

There"s nfw I"m spending 23x3 minutes cleaning a room! Even if I had just shot Jules!

Do you think so? Cos its all in the wording. 23ft sq or 23 sq ft, there is a difference. 23ft square means every room is 529 sq foot, doesn"t it?

Leigh, I think you have divided by 7 (rooms) and not 6 (men) to reach your answer, cos I did the same first time round ;)

It"s not a maths question, it"s an economics question.

This is why:- law of diminishing returns (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diminishing_returns)

I need to know the colour of the rooms, where in the country they are, what the weather is, and how much Flash liquid they have.

I need to know each of their positions, and who is on the kettle duties.

If you don"t provide enough information we can"t provide an accurate answer.  These situations don"t take place in a vacuum, and there are other things to consider other than just their hands.
