[Chestnut2]

Thanks for all the amazing and prompt replies- I am very impressed.

[Tilly2]

Ark, how did you get April and June?

[Tilly2]

Oh, got it! May! Well done.

[Arksided]

Months before and after May. Thanks for BA.

[Chestnut2]

Before and after May

[Buenchico]

Aren't the answers for 10 and 20 transposed above?

If "May be there just before it" I would have expected June to be the answer. (Similarly if "May be there just after it", April would appear to be correct)

[pixie374]

Other way round though?

Cross-posted, but agree with chris

[Tilly2]

I see what you mean, Chris.

[Chestnut2]

Thanks for answers and I understand the April, May , June arguments.
I am still not sure of number 11 - Pascal is a boys name and Pascale a girls.

Hi Chestnut, the way I posted is the way that I read the clue, not being a prolific quizzer though I can read it the other way as well. Please do let us know which is correct.

[Chestnut2]

Yes Arksided, I will let you know the quiz setters answers - closing date is next weekend. Thanks again.

[Arksided]

Thanks, even if it is the other way around I'm happy to have helped. :-)
