I'm pretty sure the second one is incorrect. I think it's Inches in Height of Stumps in Cricket but should be 28 not 32. The laws of cricket don't specify the overall length of a stump (including the bit that goes into the ground) - they just specify the length (28 inches) of the part above the pitch. The bit below ground can be any length although 4 inches sounds about right for a typical stump.

Have you solved 144 E is the DPSL for 2012 yet from a previous post?

You asked a similar question (100 NDPSL from 1st J) in December 2008 so if the quiz is from the same source you might have that answer to help solve this one.

Hi AlphaV,

Many thanks for your answer.

My answer to 144= E is the DPSL for 2012 is
144= Euro is the Drug Payment Scheme Limit for 2012 but this is
incorrect because this new charge is from the 1st of January 2013 in Ireland!

Again, thanks for your help and if you can solve more of the above please let me know.

Thank you.

Here's another one, fairyking: 3 Ugly Sisters of Cinderella.
I'll keep thinking about the others.

fairyking - ref. your discussion above re the height of cricket stumps. See
http://sports.indianetzone.com/cricket/1/cricket_equipments.htm and you will discover that a cricket stump is indeed 32 inches in height.
Hope this helps.

Cruciformist

My OH now tells me that there were only 2 ugly stepsisters of Cinderella! Sorry!

Cruciformist

Investigate 83 = National Training Wage in Coal Mines"
3 = US of C; look up Ugly Sisters (Google) - there is something about 3 ugly sisters in the Christian religion.

Hi Cruciformist,

Many thanks for all of your help!
You are fantastic!
I will research as instructed.
Could the "W I CM" in 83=NTW I CM mean " width in centimeters"?
Your ideas are appreciated!
