Hi tornface - 99 appears to be bugging us all. Bet we will all kick ourselves when we discover the answer.

Thanks tornface and Suki
You've given me food for thought ! I'll keep thinking about it as I put up the Christmas Tree.

Eureka ! I see it now ... thank you.

Come on Julie - have you been indulging in sallyw's cake too? Think the opposite of tall beginning with S

There's no mistake in 99, Suki. Most of the entries I've received so far have got it right, so I don't think I've made it an unreasonably difficult clue.

On a different subject, would anybody care to suggest a theme for the next quiz? So far I've done British placename, famous women, & foods. Any ideas or requests, anyone.

Thanks as always to all who support Macmillan Cancer Support through these quizzes.

singers/bands?
i know other people have done it but yours are the only quizzes i do (never much cared for them but got the 'famous women' and liked a it lot).
...or famous inventions?
btw. like some others, i've had this winter/food quiz done for a while now apart from #99.Grrr, i know the clue off by heart (where does that phrase come from?)
have a great Christmas. x

Just got 99! It's not actually that hard. Separate the first two words and you'll get it.

Well done, Tornface!

Thanks MQ. That was great fun, I realised today that if I wanted to scan it, I would have to finish it by Thursday. Is a scanned entry ok? I'm worried about my handwriting.

A scanned entry is fine so long as it is not in a very unusual format. Merry Christmas.
