14 a breed of pig


18 a composer

razza could you give me the first letter of 14 please
f
sorry, Goofy, that looks a bit bare!! The letter is "F"
I can't find a breed of pig anywhere beginning with F. Is it a British Breed? Thanks.
Yes, BabsG, it is a British pig. developed from landrace or large white and bred for lean meat.(according to Collins)
Thanks Gill. I found it soon after I posted my reply - isn't it always the way.
still stuck on both of these. I had put fastback ofr 14, but wasn't very happy with it - no pig.
What sort of composer - Lyrics, classical, modern? Thought it might have been an anagram.
Goofy, check fastback in Chambers dictionary. The composer is a Russian born American songwriter.
trouble is the only Chambers dict I have access to is the internet one - and it doesn't give that. However I'll take your word for it. Loads of dictionaries in the house - Oxford, collins, Reader's digest and more - but not Chambers. Might have to go and buy one.
Will work on composers. Many thanks
