quiz from sons mates school - help please!!

[evilkeen]

Wow, I come back and they're nearly all done.

I can't do any more, so I thought I'd make up a few instead. Here goes:

3 BB in an I
70 L in P
2 FE in N
1 GC in a P

[steve]

3 = BB in an I, 3 = Bucksome Beauties in an Impreza, 3 = Ball Bearings in an Isis

70 = L in P, 70 = Ladies in Polo (tight fit), 70 = Levels in Pyrahunters

2 = FE in N, 2 = FEmales in Novas, 2 = Flashing Eyes in Nkryptor

1 =GC in a P, 1 = Gorgeous Chick in a Panda, 1 = Gold Coin in a Pyramid

[krusty'n'nyk]

17 = A N of C

20 = MT

9 = C in the S

3 = B in a B (W T)

[Toxophilite]

20 Milk Teeth

[Toxophilite]

SIX - FIVE SPECIAL (COMING DOWN THE LINE)

17 - Atomic Number of Chlorine

[Dr Iguana]

Is that most of them then?

9 = TPN (P) so here are 9 more. Some easy, some less so.


9 = LD (ND of C)
9 = R for MM hence
9 = L of the N

9 = M (D of J) although numbers vary
9 = C of H by the S
9 = B of IR in C.

9 = W of the W.
9 = G of R (at least according to LP of C.)
9 = O of A (in 3 Os. C, S, and T. D,V, and P. P,A, and A.)

[krusty'n'nyk]

well done you lot, only got 4 left now

9 = C in the S

3 = B in a B (WT) (the quiz was written way before the olympics!!!! sorry nice try!!)

8 = D in an ERS

65 = S (CD the L) (not sure that one is right, sounds a bit topical rather than general, if you know what i mean!!??)

[krusty'n'nyk]

second thoughts the 65 one is what ive come up with too now so ill give it a go anyway.

6-5 special was a music programme from the 60's!!!

[Dr Iguana]

The six-five special coming down the line was ITV's answer to the Beeb's "Top of the Pops." It is almost certainly the right answer. Saturday evenings just after a short six-o-clock news. Main presenter Jim Dale. The six-five special comin' down the line, six-five special right on time. Coal in the boiler, burnin' up bright. Six-five special racin' through the night.

9 = C in the S. Just realised this is probably the same as I mentioned earlier. 9 Circuits in the Styx. Mythology says the River Styx circles Hades nine times.

3 = B in a B. Long shot this because it seems to be phrased oddly for this answer. 3 Books in a Bible, representing the main translations of William Tyndale. The New Testament, The Pentateuch, and Jonah. I'd keep looking on this one.

But then again (and this is an edit)

3 = B in a B (WT). Three Beats in a Bar (Waltz Time). How come nobody got that one?

[krusty'n'nyk]

thanks so much for your time and effort, thats all a great help and i think that only leaves one more to go!!!

i really am sooo gratefull.

now any idea what the password is for my pyrimid!!!??? lol

nykxx

[Dr Iguana]

I thought it could be likely that in an abbreviation like ERS the S could stand for System, so I googled ER Sytem; Came up with this-

The unmanned spy drone systems that armies use these days are called several things but one of them is an Extended Range System. This consists of eight drones and all the ground control gear and crew.

So 8 = D in an ERS. 8 Drones in an Extended Range System.

Not totally sure about it but thought I'd chuck it in.

[Kheldar]

Any chance of someone compiling all these answers and reposting? I'm just too lazy to do them!

[evilkeen]

If krusty'n'nyk did that, he could include the ones he said he'd already got as well!
