Just read this on Ceefax local news: The team have made headlines after responding to a record 116 call outs in 2010 and have used search dogs in 30 incidents across the Peak District & surrounding area. Their funding is solely from public donations. They are hoping that in 2011 they will be able to replace team members' protective equipment and also buy a new 4x4 response vehicle. To Abers who are still looking for a challenging quiz, with closing date of 29/01/2011 then I know your support will be much appreciated. Thank you once again to all who have supported so far.

Hi furrypusscat,
I have a copy of the quiz and I'm slightly confused by your previous post on here about Questions 51 and 52 and the relevance of the number of dashes. Those questions have six and three dashes respectively. I have a six letter answer for Question 51 but that then suggests the answer to Question 52 is only three letters in total.
Is that correct (?), ie the whole answer you are looking for is just three letters long, is the name of a place in the British Isles, is or contains the name of a bird and presumably is a collective noun for penguins???
Could you please clarify. Thanks

Hi pulse876,
Sorry if I have caused you confusion.
A query was posted on the 'Fundraising site' asking if the amount of dashes related to the amount of letters missing which I confirmed as 'Yes'.
To clarify your query, Qu 51 is a 6 letter answer, Qu 52 is 3 letters 1st word followed by 7 letters for 2nd word which as you suggest is used as a collective noun for penguins - in some dictionaries.
I hope this clarifies your query. Should you have any other questions, please ask and I will be glad to assist.
