5. The next number is 3 not 6 ... the numbers are the number of letters in the words one two three four five six seven eight nine so ten is 3

Hely the question is actually what are Cambridge number fives. Fives is a team game similar to rugby and the Cambridge and Oxford Fives play an annual varsity match so I'm wondering if it's that. But I'm actually not sure if either of us is right ...

Someone else also said that Annie on another site so I'm wandering which is the right answer. I though that it was something to do with the universities myself
