Sorry I can't give you 3*** Mamyalynne, as the clues don't unfortunately mean anything to me.Thanks for replying though.

[Mamyalynne]

[Polly1958]

I think mamylynne is right with her answers

[Mamyalynne]

Alastair Campbell? and is book by Hammond Innes

[vegasmad]

Mamyalynne is right

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_Quiet_Flows_t he_Don

[Mamyalynne]

Good luck
Mx

[Mamyalynne]

Please dont think am bothered about the *** LOL

[poodledoo]

sincere apologies Mamyalynne-I thought you had given me clues not answers, as obviously I had never heard of the book titles. You have deserved your 3*** and more besides.Please forgive me-its obviously time I stopped trying to do the rest of the quiz as nothing is making sense any more.

[Mamyalynne]

think was my fault as i didnt capitalise my answers,dont give in poodledoo. ♥

[campanilla]

Can you tell me how you got Campbell's Kingdom? Although it is a book by Hammond Innes, the character is Bruce not Alastair......

[poodledoo]

thank you all for your answers, and now that I've been forgiven, good luck to you too with the rest of the quiz.Believe it or not I've done 80% of the quiz now, 75% on my own, I shall tackle the other 20% when I'm thinking clearly.

[poodledoo]

Alistair Campbell was one of Tony Blair's allies.

[campanilla]

Many thanks for the clarification.

[Mamyalynne]

youve done more than me poodledoo
