Stuck on the last three questions on General Knowledge quiz. Both are general knowledge.
No.13 A very large unlimited number can be called A ?
No.16 Which sportsman had the initials M.C.C.
No.28 A six stringed cello
Thank you everyone.

13 could be many things, such as Myriad. Difficult without more information
16 is probably Colin Cowdrey, full name Michael Colin Cowdrey
18 may be Viol, which is a cello with six strings

Perhaps 28 might be Arpeggione

Good point, jono. 16 could equally be Zillion, I suppose. All a little vague if there is no more to go on,

Jono, those are precisely defined, so not "unlimited." How about plethora?

Thank you Quisling
I must admit the questions are a bit vague so No.13 could be Myriad or Zillion - both would fit. I suppose it depends what the setter wants.
My husband was kicking himself about Colin Cowdrey!
I was drawn to Viol as well but wasn't sure.

Ah yes, I overlooked the ‘unlimited’ part!

Thank you. This question has certainly opened a debate. I won't know which to choice now!
