Question Author

juliey--------struggling with No 6 as well,


26..........Think of a field measurement.


48..........Think of "Dick" (as in short for Richard) and a vegetable


90...........Don't know that, think it must a another anagram (Do show mouse Anfield) 9-9



Other's I am looking for are.


10, you might put your foot in it (7)


32 Bullseye's owner (5) I thought Bowen, but cannot find a place called that.


42....Extended village (10). I thought Longparish?


43...Jack's harbour (10)





Pebbles
26. Do you mean furlong or acre something like that?
48. Those characters are in Dick Barton stories, but I cannot get any further than that.
32 possibly Sykes? If there is such a place.
42 I have Longparish/Longthorpe
43 Beginning with Tar ?
Sorry I am not much help. What do you have for 39?
Don't want to be an old killjoy, or anything, but can't help thinking we're a bit soon asking about these, aren't we? After all, the closing date isn't til 31st OCTOBER !!!
Question Author

26, yes


48, Barton in the Beans...there is such a place (Leic)


32, yes there are, several ,well done


39.....Think of Rabbits......



How about No's 10,15,19,49,61,63,64,69,75,79,80,85,92

Question Author
Big Jenny, you are probably right, but if i don't do them now, I forget about them and don't remember to send them in.....!!
I do need months to work on these quizzes.

Question Author
Have you got No 6, 19, 49,69,

Yes,


6. Pretty sure it's SWAYTHLING


19. DENVER


49. LYON'S GATE


69. Pretty sure it's BRENT, although looking again can't see just BRENT in atlas, so I may have to think again on that one!

Question Author

Brent is correct..............it is in London.
