Here is the new puzzle for you to think about:
On a nice spring day, two sisters decided to clean out the old shed in their garden. It was full of old, unused bikes, yellow newspapers, big, wooden boxes, roller skates, ragged clothes, worn-out shoes, rubber boots, dried bats, spider webs... so when they had finished the work they were totally exhausted. However, one of the sisters had been more willing to do the dusty and dirty jobs than the other one so she ended up with a dirty face while the other's face remained more or less clean. The sister with the clean face went and washed her face but the girl with the dirty face did not go to have a wash. Why?

Clue: How can you tell normally that your face needs washing if nobody tells you so? What if the two girls couldn't find the everyday tool for that? What would they think if they looked at each other?

The solution (in case someone needs it:)
The two girls didn't have a mirror so when they looked at each other they made conclusions based on the other's face. The girl with the clean face thought:
-Well, I'd better go and have a wash because I probably look just like this piggy here.
And vice versa.
