Tricky Puzzle



This is a tricky puzzle, a good one. If you try it I will leave a comment on your blog regarding your answer.

I happened to be at the mall early one morning, I entered the store on opening at 9.30am.  I couldn't resist saying to the man opening the door : 'Well did I win anything?  (I am) customer number 2! '   He laughed and welcomed me inside.  The weather has improved so I guess I was in a good mood and couldn't resist a bit of humour.

Also, I went out to the garden yesterday and did some weeding!

Good weather always puts us in a good mood!

let say:
1 boot = 5
1 man = 5
1 telescope = 2

thus, 1 boot + ( 1 man + 2 boot + 2 telescope) + 1 telescope =
5 + (5 + 10 + 4) + 2 = 26

# yes, I am not details to see man with boots, but I can't recognize that man holds two telescopes at all.

## Thank you for "tricky puzzle"
