Rté had a show in this morning wherein was asked 3 impossible things: 2) A hat for the head of Kinsale, 3) A quilt to cover the ocean. What was the first?

These are not riddles. Riddles come in two forms enigmas and conundra. Enigmas rely on metaphor and ingenuity conundra rely on metaphor.

'There was a thing a full month old,
When Adam was no more;
But ere that thing was five weeks old,
Adam was years five score.'
What am I ?

The moon! :-)

Now THAT's a riddle.
