Thanks so much winnie for all your help again, just looked in while lunch is cooking so will work on them later,
Thanks also for your good wishes & I'm sure you are correct as I have enjoyed the challenge, but I have another 20 quizzes yet to do & I like to try & work them out for myself asking for help only when my books & google can no longer help me. Best Wishes x

winnie I'm afraid it's me again with your help I finished the last clue last night or thought I had until I counted 51 dogs & 49 cats !!!!!!
Can you confirm for me that no 25 is b---- e--- & if it is a cat or a dog. I know nothing about darts so possibly am not working down the right lines as it doesn't seem to have any relevance to no. 24, I'm hoping this is where my problem is. Thanks.

Thanks again for all your help.x

Hi puzzled, you are very welcome to any hints I've given - I have always been grateful for a little additional help - I think it is friendly. After all its not as though we are doing for profit - are we !
Re 25 For confirmation that b---- e-- is correct , it is the name of Bill Sykes dog in Oliver Twist ( that is the dog connection).
Be in touch next quiz. Take care. x

It could be something as simple as counting one name in the wrong half...I was in the same situation until i realised I'd been counting Garfield as a dog!
