Haeremai: 87 Put the colin as a bird (5 letters)between SS (on board ship), and you get the name of an obscure game like ninepins. That's what I've got anyway.

76: Yes, Francis Bacon.

Hi everyone. I think I have finished, but am still unsure of my answer to 71. I have the name of an errant knight beginning with Q but I am not sure of the 'a young man in distress' bit. What am I missing please?

Thanks Nonplussed. Got no 90 now. Will keep plodding on with the rest on pages 1 and 2. I have twenty still to solve but will try myself before I ask for more help.

Nonplussed again. Like Winnie my no. 71 begins with Q. Where have we gone wrong?

71 begins with p if that's any help. I have put the word for colin in between ss and the only anagram I can find is pasquils which I can't find as a game anywhere.

Felicity. What is French for 14? That I think is the answer. Re. No 87 think of a game played on cruise ships beginning with Q and add another S in the middle.
Re no 71 still no idea. Thought the errant knight (or knight errant as was previously told to reverse these two words) was Don Quixote but obviously not the answer if you say it begins with a P. Help again please?????
