PART TWO: LITTLE TO DO WITH CHRISTMAS
In these two words, the letters in red have the same sound when pronounced: key, cat.

Now find words in which the following letters have the same 'k' sound: ck, ch, qu, cc, cch, kk, lk, kh, cqu, cu.


PART THREE: SONGS
Work out which Christmas Number One these lyrics are from and put them in order of year.

- And it's a world of dread and fear
- we'll drink a drink a drink
- Dark distant mountains with valleys of green
- Children playing having fun
- It's the time that every Santa has a ball
- Now Ernie loved a widow, a lady known as Sue
- Though you may be far away We think of you
- Dreams of Santa, dreams of snow
- warriors both, of course
- That's where I'll be since you left me

Could we not just guess the number of red and green jelly beans there are in a jar?
People will come from strange lands to hear me speak my words of wisdom. They will ask me the secret of life and I will tell them. Then maybe I'll finish off with a song. The Nomad

        I want to play a game. Above is one of Roger's evil quizzes. Anyone who does not get all the answers gets turned into one of his characters in the Beau Peep strips. He showed no mercy to Vera of the Seven Veils. Will you be just as unlucky?

Don't cheat by using the internet.

Are we allowed to use the internet to:
a) read the questions, and
b) post the answers?

I might allow that for a small fee.

That funny because that was all I got when I first saw the quiz too and thought it would be a bit lame to only answer one question.
