@oAlt Given that ASR didn't end up posting a new clue and I suspect you're coming online at some point shortly anyway ... maybe (if you want it) you can just take it anyway

The following puzzle comes in a lot of different forms:
A farmer once went to the market and bought a bag of beans, a goose, and a fox. On his way home, the farmer stopped at a river's edge and rented a small boat. The farmer could only fit himself and one of his purchases in the boat: the fox***...
Same, I would have said Australian (but I'm no expert). Not sure about British English either, I feel like some sub-varieties don't have the same vowel sound for those two words
@ChrisCudmore yeah. Like when a Hibs fan says the word "Hearts" and when a Liverpool fan says the word "United", they might come out sounding the same.
Without moving or removing any number, replace each of the triangles by either $+$, $-$, $\div$ or $\times$, and insert as many sets of parentheses as you want, in order to make the following equality true:
$$1^2\:\Delta\:2^2\:\Delta\:3^2\:\Delta\:\ldots\:\Delta\:87^2=2023^2$$
STALK and STORK are pretty close to being homophones for me. (Generic upper-middle-class southern English accent.) I think there's a tiny difference but I'm not certain I'm not fooling myself.
I wonder whether it's common to pronounce stork and stalk the same except for vowel length. (In which case, I'd guess stork would have the longer vowel.)
They're both "aw" for me, and if anything "stork" is a bit further back for me than "stalk". Maybe. Again, I suspect that actually they're exactly the same and I'm just fooling myself when I think I detect differences :-).
Using the numbers 1, 2, 3,..., 15, in that order, how can you make the number 2023 using the +, -, $\times$, and $\div$ operations. (You can use as many parentheses as you want.)
On a fictional island there were two types of people: knights who always told the truth, and knaves, who always lied. They got irritated by people asking them so many questions so they all moved to an uninhabited and very remote peninsula. Three of the inhabitants, Alpha, Beta and Frank are in ...
