Sorry Winnie, so you did. Thanks, have worked them out too. Hadn't heard of the Red Dwarf character? It is obviously time i put the quiz away for a week or two or even a month so i can come back refreshed to work out the last 21 I need to solve. I'll be back!!

just watch out for cycling event to do, apart from the fact that there appears to be a mistake in the letters allowed for number 70!!!! They never make mistakes though!

Someone has been in touch with Neville and he has confirmed that the answer has 11 letters not 10 as stated.

jul,
I think the cycling event (No.65) has been suggested in an earlier thread - Both words begin with T
Hope this helps
Good luck

Hi Winnie, Ladybee, Quizmad and others. Guess what....due to lots of stuff going on in my life I had not even downloaded the quiz until Friday! A dear friend who also does it rang to ask how I was getting on, and to share clues. She is already up to 80. So, have gone through it a couple of times, a couple of hours last evening and a quick look now after church before family arrive for lunch. At first it looked more of a stinker than usual but after calming down a bit I have managed to solve 44 of them.....long long way to go so may well be begging for hints soon. Good to see all the old friends still playing.

Welcome twinsnan. Don't worry about being abit late, there is still PLENTY of time before we have to send it in.
Just thought I would tell your though, it was discovered that our Neville has made a mistake on question 70. The answer has 11 letters in it (not 10 as stated)and Neville has confirmed the error. Good Luck.

Thank you for the welcome Winnie and the earth shattering news that Neville has made a mistake!! Surely a first. How they manage this twice a year is beyond me though and I am so glad they do because despite all the screaming and late nights and kicking oneself these are the best puzzles I have ever done in the 16 years I have been doing them. Will get stuck in tomorrow and see how I get on. Stay online please, even if you have finished as I know I will need some clues very soon.

Hello mamya

A bit hesitant about incurring your wrath, but I'll beg forgiveness and hope you may be able to help me out of a dilemma!
Question 36 is 'Pi (Get to the root of this one) and I have two answers which seem to fit the criteria!
The first I found by making an anagram of pi and root. This gave me a very famous fictional character who 'gets to the root of' each mystery.
On a second trawl through the quiz, I found that I could replace the verb 'get' with another, make a further anagram and discover a 'root'.
One ends with the correct letter and the other starts with the same correct letter!
If you feel able, could you please indicate which may be incorrect??

Hello Penangpete. Think your second answer might be on the right track. Think vegetable.

I did exactly the same thing, had the very famous detective but then changed it to one of my least favourite root vegetables.....and I am a vegetarian! have both answers jotted down but am veering more to the veg.
