Guest Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 Hello everyone new here today. This is a riddle, the answer might apply to any era of history, I hope you enjoy. It's just a bit of fun. Here it is: Is this a < ! > which I see before me? At the business end is a very sharp point. At the other end is something from a Swan (helps it fly through the air). If not kept in it's special holder it may cause injury (especially to the eye). Some times, when it's taken from out of its holder, it is given a rapid shake. Without it 1066 would have been a different story. To use it, it must be held lightly using the first and second fingers. Only two fingers are used. The thumb is used also, to help direct it. anyone?

Hello everyone new here today.
This is a riddle, the answer might apply to any era of history, I hope you enjoy.
It's just a bit of fun. Here it is:
Is this a < ! > which I see before me?
At the business end is a very sharp point.
At the other end is something from a Swan (helps it fly through the air).
If not kept in it's special holder it may cause injury (especially to the eye).
Some times, when it's taken from out of its holder, it is given a rapid shake.
Without it 1066 would have been a different story.
To use it, it must be held lightly using the first and second fingers. Only two fingers are used.
The thumb is used also, to help direct it.
anyone?
Regards
