  • Any quizzers on here? DH and my dad are stuck on one clue from a quiz issued by a local church, its only for fun. They've paid their subs so no worries if they don't get the answer. All the answers are alphabetical, and relate to names of vegetables or parts of plants you may enjoy eating. They have the answer for No 47 and 49 and are stuck on No 48 so the answer starts with the letters between Squash and White, as it's alphabetical. The answer has 6 letters.

    Please and thank you :)

    47. Fast-paced raquet sport ...... Squash.
    48. You need knowledge and wisdom to know how to eat this (6) ......?
    49. Watch a big bee dance round pale green leaves .... White Cabbage

    Thank you juju for bringing over the edam,happydoos for the mayonnaise and the op for the bacofoil.
    Thanks to the Watchdog promotion on yellow stickers our local counter has doubled in size today! :j:j The bargains were amazing but there were a lot of people around but everyone was sharing apart from one who was adamant that she could pick what she wanted off the shelf and pile it in front of poor sa.
    I thought I might try sainsburys on christmas eve for the edam as I have a 4 of £20 and was wondering if I paid with my nectar vouchers they would still pay up? Anyone comment on this? I dont like parting with my real money like the rest of the elite.

  • Hi, I think the answer may be Tomato from....


    Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
