I'm with Mamya on giving hints for answers to this type of quiz. I don't do them myself, but I'm puzzled as to some people's motives for doing them -- is it a bit recreational mind exercising, or is it purely in the hope of winning a prize? If it's the former some people seem to put up requests for help rather too quickly -- which I think is Mamya's point, and the point of giving hints. Also, like most people here, I'm happy to offer any help I can to anyone, but I do wonder when sometimes (not in this case) people post virtually a whole quiz and ask for help.

Bullfrog, thanks for seeing my point of view. I am not making judgements especially in this case
as only one is asked .
Maybe as I have recently become a devotee of this
type of quiz, its made me a bit precious, do hope
not.
But still love to help if I can.


Ps this question has gone haywire on my screen
is it the same for all??

point taken.
the screen goes like this when there are quote marks (or maybe any punctuation except ","and ".")in the title of the thread if it goes to more than 1 page.

Oh I see

Thanks Trevor hope we remian friends LOL

Somebody else pointed out this strange effect.

just come in from a hard day at the salt mines - didn\'t quite expect the response I received - glad you all enjoyed this. Now....this quiz freak still needs just one more answer - and by the way I got drink and drive myself today during lunch break.

No 61. Helpful tips 5-3-8 Any ideas - and, yes, I would consider that the middle one is \'and\' Cheers

Hi ejay
did you drive to a pub for
your lunch?
I am bad at giving clues
especially when I don't know the answer(as in this case).
Just thought I'd say Hi because I sorta hijacked your thread. sorry.

My stab at your remaining one
is so obscure, I won`t even hazard
a clue

Good Luck with it

Not holidays I'm afraid but a lot of work for the http://www.arranartsfestival.co.uk/>McLellan Festival (lighting and sound for two concerts, two plays and a play reading). Some respite now until the pantomime in December when we are putting on Cinderella; although I've still got a pantomime clock to build in the next few weeks.

As for Big Dave, he's the Telegraph guru and there haven't been a lot of of DT related queries in the past few weeks. However I expect he's lurking out there waiting to pounce.
