Took me 40 minutes and a couple pages of notes. Its actually easier then you'd think, as long as you got time to kill

Coudal Partners The Fish


If you get stuck, heres some hints courtesy of @Jammer22


Drink 000000 1111111 Milk Coffee 44444
Nat Norwegian 1111111 Brit 33333 44444
Color Yellow Blue Red Green White
Cigar Dunhills 1111111 22222 33333 44444
Pet 000000 Horses 22222 33333 44444

You gotta make sure you got your colors right first and that you place things in the chart so they won't interfere.

The Brit is red but you don't know their number order, so wait.
Norwegian is 1st & Its next to the blue house so the blue 2.
The Green house is next to white and Green drinks coffee.
After that you'll find that milk man is in the middle, so green can't take the middle spot since it's a coffee house and next to white.
Now you know where to put Red since the Brit is tied to it.
Norwegian is yellow by default.
The Yellow and Dunhills and horse part are easy.

I got the right answer and the site seems to support what I got. What am I missing?

Doesn't seem to me to be the Norweigan

Nah you right. I haven't actually done the problem in 4 months, so I forgot the answer.

Norwegian is the key to solving the riddle... but ya its the German

short answer german. Long answer i had placeholders for the slots and slowly built how they were related. First thing falling into place was the house orders. Green is to the left of white and he drinks coffee. Norwegian is in the first slot next to a blue colored house. Which can only be in the second slot. The green +white combo can only start from the 4th and fifth slot since third slot drinks milk and green drinks coffee.
So the first and third slot are the ones left up in the air. The norwegian is in the first house and we know his house isnt red cause that's the brits house.. So the brit is in a red house in the third slot.

1st house: Yellow, Norwegian, Water. Dunhills, Cats... 2nd house: Blue, dane, tea, blends, horses.. 3rd house: Red, Brit, milk, pall malls, birds. 4th house: Green, German, Coffee, princes, fish... 5th house: White, Swede, beer, Blue masters, dogs

A man has a piece of land divided into eight equal squares like what I've drawn above on the napkin. He also has eight sons and he wants to give them each a piece. Problem is each of the sons doesn't get along with whoevers born directly before or after them. And they dont want to share any type of border or have their lands touch.
So allocate that land to each in a way this doesnt happen using nos 1-8 as a place holder for the sons in an order of how they were born.

Go.

Your eight and seven are touching boundaries. One and too are as well.. 2 and 3.. 6 and 7. None of any of the numbers in sequence should touch even edge to edge diagonally
