Hi all , has anyone got their brainy head on and can help with a few answers to a quiz from the school.
its Ancronymns... there are some real corkers but i have managed to get all but 3 (i hope) out of 25:thumbsup:
They all start with the corresponding no. eg. 3 BM(SHTR) -three blind mice(see how they run)
15-fifteen men on a dead man's chest etc
The three that are eluding me are
17 OETD
18 TTS
23 A(SGD)
They are propably so obvious, but i just can't see it.:doh:
Thank you x

clever bunch - and google helped with a couple - we are resourceful too :thumbsup::laughing:
:so happy: WOW:so happy:
You clever bunch !!! i was going to put the answers on but there is no need :laughing:
Why didn't i enlist your help earlier ?
Unfortunatly we didn't win ( we as in all the forum brains !!:thumbsup:) it was a joint effort in the end so you all deserve some credit:magnificent:
All the correct sheets were put in a hat so it was luck of the draw.:(
It's not about winning, it's about taking part :D
