[burgess3334]

Thanks Jean, sorry for delay in replying, you may have seen these by now
The Budweiser one Les Norman and the Buddies
For Earth all I can find is Steve Lindsey and the Planets
I suppose it will have to be the obvious answer to Q31

[smouse]

No problem
The Planets did have a top 40 hit but not sure they were called Steve Lindsay and the (but who cares now)

Cant find a hit for les norman and the buddies though - have you
Going to post if Monday and continue my struggle with the odd bods one
Jean

[smouse]

Just added mine up and I got 146 so really pleased
I think having found that a domino was a cape we should have been allowed that but now I see it was an anagram I can see how they then got the earth one
Also didnt see what was wrong with mamas and papas but judges decision is final and all that
Backing group wasnt listed with K7
All in all I think we did well and heres to a hidden thread for the next one - lol
Jean

[burgess3334]

I didn't keep a copy of my answers but they are going to send it back marked, so I will let you know how I did, my sister Kay Bywater got a share of second prize, but no luck for me,
Bye

[smouse]

You'll like my comment to his message - lol
Well done to your sister
Jean

[burgess3334]

Jean, I understand from my sister Kay (EVSAJO) that you are based in Derbyshire, snap, we live in Chellaston. Still waiting for my answer sheet to Fiji, do you have the latest quiz from Stoney Middleton, it's cryptic clues to coastal towns in England and Wales, due in 28th September?
Bye for now
Alan

[burgess3334]

Jean,
I scored 149 in Fiji, the ones I got wrong were 38, 48, 55, 67 and half of 78

[smouse]

Aan I guess you mean the smile quiz dont you. Well all I can say is it doesnt make me smile. I hate geography. I have done some but will wait for some answers from my friend as her geog is better than mine.
Just got the new HGSFA or whatever today and that looks a killer - too many pics and logos. Just counted up and I have 15 ready to post off and 10 on the go - sad or what!
I actually got 150 on fiji when it came back so if I had been allowed dominoes I would have been second and stolen your sister teatowel - lol
You missed off the dreaded small budweisers but other wise I got same wrong as you but did get both bits of 78
I live near Chesterfield
Wonder how long a thread can stay open - lol
Jean

[burgess3334]

Jean,
The thread will still be going this time next year unless we start a new one, I dont have too many quizzes going at the moment, only 6, Let me have the address for the HGFSA one, then we can exchange answers. As I share prizes with my sister, I think I have the teatowel on Monday, Wednesday and Friday!
Bye for now, going to make a start on the "Wild Ones" Derbyshire Wildlife Trust quiz.

Hows the wildlife quiz going - I saw you had asked one
My night out
Jean

[burgess3334]

Jean, wildlife going slowly, we are in the process of moving house (that is when ours is sold) so its a matter of doing an odd clue here and there between sorting out the loft. We went walking in Chatsworth on thursday, the first dry day for ages. Back to Wildlife, so far I have done 17 in section 1, I haven't looked at section 2, finished section 3 and thats as far as I have got so I wont be asking for help just yet. I am going to send for the Marie Curie quiz, I need something to keep me occupied!!!!!!!
Alan

[smouse]

I think you'll like it
Have you got the HGFSA one
How is smile going - its gone to the bottom of my pile

[burgess3334]

Morning Jean,
believe it or not I only need 7 in Smile, one of which I'm 99% sure of. I need 18, 55, 57 this is the 99%er, 85, 87, 93 and 94.
I'm just trying to finish Macmillan H 2 O quiz, can you give clues to 61, 74, 75, 80, 88, 98 and 99. Then its all systems go on The Wild Ones,
If you want any help with Smile, let me know,
Bye for now
Alan

[burgess3334]

Jean,
have spent nearly 2 hours on Wild Ones, have finished all sections except Part One, I need 5 in this part
Steal Mr Warburton
Dropping down round Maureen
Mr Hancock had ropes twisted (? an anagram)
Just one having no chance at first with corvid
At first its only little ones that get pear
Clues would help
Alan

[smouse]

Smile I will probably steal all my friends answers or not do it at all. I guess when I have no other quizzes I would like more but still have several on the go.
H two O - I'll give you answers if you want but presume you knew that
61 first word slang term of thousand
74 last word is a posh word for father
75 word for depressed then an anagram of 3 words in the clue
80 look up innominate then its a book title
88 phrase which means a novice immature etc
98 not sure how I found this but it is a song by someone called Leon
99 third word a letter that sounds like water
I hope I am better at answering them than setting clues so hope these help
Wildlife
Are you implying you have the limited greek and french lost one that no one seems to have??
Clues
What do Warburtons make? so what is he
nickname for maureen is in the middle of a word for dropping
surname is an anagram then who was Mr Hancock for the first name
second name word for corvid
type of pear for second name
Sorry I didnt see this earlier and hope these help
Jean

[burgess3334]

Jean,
sorry about the Limitted Greek question, I had put Steve Leonard ??????? as someone had put it on AB, but I dont know why. Thanks for the clues, I'm working on them,
Alan
