Posed at 8:26, answered at 8:27. Pretty good sandy. (it took me longer).

The surgeon is the mother.

Tilly2

Doesn't mine count then?
Have you got any more puzzles?

naomi24

Oops ... didn't see the other answers there.

This has been asked on answerbank a few times over the years.

The surgeon could also be the civil partner of the man, so another man!

I'm a bit late seeing this grasscarp, but then the boy wouldn't be his son.

PS. If as you say this puzzle has been on here before, I must retrospectively ask sandy if he actually worked it out, or was he cognisant of the answer beforehand. If this is the case, the award is therefor null and void, and could even possibly go to Tilly.

Tilly2

No Khandro. I don't deserve to win. I've seen it before. That's why I asked if you had any more puzzles.

sandyRoe

I don't deserve the award, either. May I nominate Naomi?

can't be much of a prize, nobody seems to want it

Tilly2

Now I've spilled my tea, ael! That really made me laugh.

I think that is hardly fair, it isn't that the contestants do not want this prestigious award, it's their downright decency and honesty preventing them from doing so.

grasscarp

The boy could be the son of a civil partner. These days anything is possible!
