Do you have any examples from this quiz where you know the answers are right? To help us see how the setter's mind works. I'm not really at all happy with my suggestion of Vera....& I don't think that a Catherine wheel is necessarily a TINY window - any more than a rose window would be.

Can you tell me if this quiz is available by post please.

[crofter]

I've just realised that there are TWO clues here!

The tiny window is FENESTELLA - that contains the name Stella.

[crofter]

Could the second one be PATIO (containing PAT)?
