VEGETABLE STEW AND FRUIT SALAD
Thanks for all your entries. It kept me nice and busy in the first few days home recovering
from my operation.
I didnt specify any deadlines, so in joint first place
are those who got full marks congratulations to
LS and Helen
Runners-up Mick and Pat with 24, closely followed by
Teresa (23) and Terry (22). Great
efforts also from OC, Panikos, Amelie and Tim.
Among the individual questions, number 5 probably created
most difficulty, while several came up with the alternative answer of sloe to
number 16: this certainly fits the
first three words of the question perfectly, but, as it ignores the remainder
of the question and the alphabeticity of the answers, I decided in the end to
disallow it.
