I haven't got a clue but just wanted to say Boing Boing! Astle is the King ;-)

[Baggies68]

Indeed he is, and always will be!

Hi baggies.
Could you please post all your questions together. They take up a lot of space otherwise, and it takes longer to scrol through all the questions on AB.
Thanks in advance, Goofy

It is a bit early to be asking questions from the Rainbow Quiz - it doesn't close until the end of November.
p.s. this is one I've not yet answered either

alexandria..........anastasia ?

It is a bit early to be asking for help but as you have - Cinderella seems a good answer. Obviously she was in second place in the family, dressed in rags and weren't the mice changed into doormen and wasn't it Robbie Burns who referred to mice as nasty beasties, or something like that?

Thank you for the explanation.FoxLee2

Just completed the"A" Train puzzle (they seem to get harder!) and the very last one I solved was the one you were querying (Nr. 83). I would point you to answer number 2 ("Second place") and go from there with the rest of the 83 clue. Good luck!.

Just a week into a three-month quiz and asking already?

Where's your stamina?

[dougglos]

gen2 - Can I take it that your 00:16 comment was not addressed to me? If it was, I couldn't see where I was asking for anything! If it was not, good luck with the puzzle.

she was in third place, two ugly sisters remember, and Burns said mice were wee cow'ring timorous beasties. Apart from that...
