Doctor Sahab I've already said that in my reply to Omer
In English, when they say "after two days" they include the current day as well so that makes "2 days after Monday = Wednesday" and not Thursday

The Mind Teaser that I posted was from a book and the answer that I have posted here (Tuesday) is also from the same book.

P.S : I referred the matter to Last Island as I believed her to have some authority on English Literature and may be on grammar as well
Thanks for the ditto Last Island
