A wee teaser. First, some random facts;
1. My son lives and works in Glasgow,
2. During Covid, he grew a beard.
3.Mrs and I went on holiday in early October,
4. Son went on holiday just before we came home.
5. He came through for the game at lunchtime on Saturday.
6. He and I watched the game together.
7. We went home for a pizza and a beer with the whole family.
8. My daughter asked her brother a question and my wife and I almost fell over with astonishment. 😱
What did she ask him? 🤔

None of the above. For clarity, daughter`s question wasn`t surprising and perfectly sensible. Can`t believe we were caught out by it, especially Mrs Riva as she doesn`t normally miss a trick. 😃

Isn`t this a bit like asking `how long is a piece of string`? There are an infinite number of questions she could have asked.
You say you and your wife were `astonished` but then you say the question `wasn`t surprising and perfectly sensible`. I don`t understand how both these statements can be true.

I asked AI and it says it cannot solve such riddles. 😂

We have a winner, although Aaron Labonte had a good stab at it, realising the clue was in the OP.
Well done, Mike. 👏 👏 👏
Mrs Riva and I were astonished because we never noticed, and our son never let on. It`s maybe more understandable coming from me as my observational skills are not great, but `er indoors never misses a trick.... 😃
Do we have a proper psychologist in the building who can explain in professional terms how it was possible for us to fail to spot such a massive detail? Neither of us can believe it, but it happened, 🤔

As a bearded gent, I`ve had that experience when returning from a holiday when I removed my beard on a whim. My parents didn`t comment either! Mike

I`m confused, GGR. Does that mean your daughter hadn`t seen your son since Covid (which is why she mentioned his lack of beard) but you and your wife had, so were so used to having seen him without a beard that you thought nothing of it and had forgotten that he`d had one during Covid?
