What returns but never left, has a home but no house and has an end but had no beginning?
birthdays??????????????????
when you are born you are 0 (no beginning)
when you die they end
they come round every year but never leave
they have a home, so to speak, within you but no house.
Press any key to continue.
I've never been able to find that any key.....
That took me a while even after Adrian's clue.
I was getting worried that no one had answered this!
I was going to post a clue:
"This thing has 3 locks but far more keys"
But looks like I didn't need to! Well done Adrian!!
I'm still confused about 'Returns' - no key is marked return, is it referring to the archaic 'carriage return' from typewriters?
I like the 3 locks clue.
on the old school keyboards and some new ones the enter key is also named return.
I but not me was found to be sitting on it!!
'we' are next to each other, but far from 'us'!
Has a break and 2 shifts but no rest?
Has control but no power of it's own? (doesn't include cordless!!)
Any other useless descriptions of keyboards??
Actually, I believe Macs use "return" instead of "enter"... because they like to be different.
