THE SOLUTION:
Taffy plays the drums,
Telly plays the saxophone,
Tippy plays the harmonica,
Tommy plays guitar, and
Tubby plays bass.
nice….easy, but a nice start to the day. You ever think about doing a 4 X 4 logic puzzle for the Brain Game of the day? it would take a little longer, but it would be a little more challenging.

Sax AND Harmonica? It must be a blues band!
I keep looking for the Mental Floss publication of the “Brain Game” book by Cerebral Sandy Wood. Any chances of that happening?

Ian, I’ll try to do more of those if I ever get the time to compose them. Those more complex ones take a while to get just right.
And you’re exactly right, Jack… they’d kinda blend together in spots, huh? I almost mentioned that in the text. I originally had different instruments (keyboard instead of sax) but had to change them a bit to develop clues.

I hate to think of the awful parents who named their kid Tubby. So cruel.
