Here's another couple:
In a small town everyone owns either a cat or a dog but not both. The cat owners always tell the truth and the dog owners always lie.
I walk into the town and meet a group of 5 residents but no pets in sight.
I ask them one at a time which of the two pets the others in the group own. All respond 'They all own dogs.'
How many dog-owners are there?

My wife is at Takapuna Post Office and I am at Devonport Post office, some km away. At the same time, we both start walking towards the other, she at 5km per hour and I at 4km per hour.
When we meet, who is the closer to Devonport?
