'I woke up in the wrong life' - Features, Health & Families. I didn't know it yet, but I was suffering from a condition that wiped all memory of my current life as a 34-year-old mother and catapulted me back into the mind of my 15-year-old self.

Panic kick-started my legs into gear and I sped out of the room and down the stairs, bursting into room after room I didn't recognise. I scanned the pictures on the walls – one, a portrait of a baby with a chubby face and a full head of brown curls; the next, a picture of the same baby sat on my future self's lap.

I was having dinner with a friend the other day. We were talking about my writing, and out of the blue he asked me what my favorite puzzle was. A lot of the puzzles I wrote about on this site came to mind, including The hat puzzle A mystery Sherlock Holmes couldn’t solve, but you can The problem of finding true love I was going to bring up one of these puzzles.

I read about this first in the fun puzzle book How Would You Move Mount Fuji?. Here is the problem: How many points are there on the earth where you could travel one mile south, then one mile east, then one mile north and end up in the same spot you started? My friend gave it some thought. After a moment, he replied the answer was 1. I told him he was on the right track, but his answer was incomplete. Can you figure out how many points there are? The solution is quite interesting. The “easy” answer.
