I've no idea if this is the right place to post this or not but I'm sure if it'd fit better somewhere else someone will point it out. I've been working my way through a local quiz (it's not worth posting the full details as you need an entry form and I've no idea where you'd get one from now.) and have found myself stuck on a couple of questions. I thought it might be worth picking MSErs grey matter. The two questions I'm having problems with are:

She insists on joke gifts at christmas.(3,5)

and

A fictional character to help deliver our greetings. (3,8)

All the questions and answers are Christmas related. Bob Cratchit has been suggested for the second but I'm not sure that it's correct.

Thanks for any help.

hmm, might be reading to much into the clue but worth a try..

She insists on joke gifts at christmas

she, woman, miss, mrs
she, the cats mother
cat, claws, claus
gift, goodie


Goody" is short for Goodwife, Mrs

joke, gag

Mrs claus Search - Lingerie & Sleepwear
Mrs. Claus' lingerie as gag gifts

Is it anyone on here who has sent me a friend request on FB? I only accept peeps I speak to on here as I have had a load of strange foreign requests. I don't want to refuse until I am certain I don't know them. This one is from a Carla.

A flying visit, and a favour if you will (pretty, pretty please). My daughter is a teacher in a primary school and in the year above there are 9y-o twins who lost their dad to cancer in October. The insurance company are refusing to pay out (what's new??) and there is a petitition raising awareness about this case and hopefully to persuade the insurance co. to change their mind. It already has well over the required amount of signatures, but a few more wont do any harm. It has been well reported in the tabloids and celebrities (Stephen Fry, Miranda Hart and Russell Brand (to name but a few)) have tweeted about it and have signed. If you can a spare minute to sign, I will be eternally grateful. Thanks x x x

ETA: I am reading the figures wrongly. They haven't achieved their target yet. They need 70,000 and have got just over 59,000.

Have signed TPD - know what it is like to left bringing up two kids on your own due to cancer. Thankfully insurance paid out to me.
