I wonder if you could help me with the last two on this quiz.

I guess this a famous person...

14. First name of Mrs. Veres son

and this one is under the heading Food...

34. Overturn Boat

They've got me beat, and it's got to be in soon, so I would really appreciate any suggestions, clues or even answers!

34) Leek.
Boat = keel ( flat bottomed boat ) overturned = leek.

Thanks Valerie, I would never have got that!

14. does Richard fit in?

[Big Jenny]

Is there someone well-known (that I've never heard of) called Richard Veres? I am guessing that it will be a famous person, who is perhaps known by a different name, but whose mother was Mrs. Veres. I have googled til I'm blue in the face, but haven't found anything so far.

sorry BJ - I just thought about Richard de Vere in To The Manor Born. Didn't mean to confuse. :0)
