[TheWinner]

ah, so now we know that question 5 must begin with and "o"
so if you "top" a degree of heat, it must be even "otter".

[TheWinner]

gg can I query what you said about the cc in natterjack. You said the 2nd C was caterpillar and you said question number was 22.
But you show number 22 is 9 letters (and caterpillar is 11 letters.)

Can you clarify what the two questions are to get the C and K of natterjack and how many letters in each.
Thanks.

[granny grump]

Thank you - I think that that confirms Yellow hammer for the bird

[elliemay1]

The Winner, answer to no.22 is now KITTIWAKE

[TheWinner]

Thank you ellimay1, I had to nip out, and have just lost track with it all.

I agree, it's difficult to follow when it gets so long and you have to keep scrolling up and down!
