1 Virginia Larson
2 A lawyer who’s name escapes me
Joe Harman
Jean Paget
3 Pass

5 Mark Twain I think.
1.Virginia Larsen
2 pass (this is annoying – I *should* know but it is 30 years since I read it)
3. Jeremy Moon
4. Lynley Dodd
5. NOT a scientist, from the sound of it. A sci fi author, I would say. It sounds Douglas Adams-ish but I don’t think he would be that dismissive of science. Ian Banks?
too hard for me this week, I only know the answer to number 5 which is Samuel Clemens or as he is better known Mark Twain.
1 Virginia Larson
2 Jean Paget, Joe Harmon and Skippy the Bush Kangaroo… but I recall some lawyer being involved as well
3 Jeremy Moon
4 Sue Bradford.. it has to be
5 Wayne Mapp (?)
Virginia Larson
Joe Harmon Jean Solicitor
Jeremy Moon (Holy Sheep)
Lynley Dodd DMNZ?
Samual Clemens
This is scary, I don’t believe I’ve ever agreed with Andrei on anything before but…
Too hard for, #5 is Mark Twain but I wouldn’t have a clue where to start on any of the others.
1 last time I went to the Sr I think it was cate bret but Brendon has a lot of old stock on yje table
2 Never got to the book but the movie was a significant memory, Fred Astaire and Virginia ( as an impressionable young man her voice was sooo sexy, of course in hindsight it was probably tobacco) Mckenna.Cant remember the character IDs.
3 Jeremy Moon, have just read Dust to Gold by John Periam and it records the tremendous PR success of Shreks aftermatch coat from Icebreaker.
4 Lynly Dodd
5 Mark Twain.
So Ele Its back to the Vinyard for me, didnt have the energy to visit yesterday so sorry for the late assignment this week.
Gravedodger – Sorry I didn’t mention you when scoring the responses. I’d written the post this morning and put it on time-delayed publish so hadn’t seen your answers.
You got two correct and you can have a bonus for extra info on 2 & 4.
Thanks Ele its a hoot to make mondays more identifiable and after coming to this weeks late it didn’t submit which I discovered when lunchtime came around. Thanks for you patience.
