Who’s Who?

 

Slinko, Solomon, Kirk, and Gauld are four people whose occupations are lawyer, pharmacist, shop manager, and police officer, but not necessarily in that order.

·               Slinko and Solomon are neighbours and take turns driving each other to work.

·               Solomon makes more money than Kirk.

·               Slinko beats Gauld regularly at badminton.

·               The lawyer always walks to work.

·               The police officer does not live near the pharmacist.

·               The only time the shop manager and the police officer ever met was when the police officer arrested the shop manager for speeding on the way to work.

·               The police officer makes more money than the pharmacist or the shop manager.
