[Solved] November fun

Thought this might keep people busy. I'll leave this running for the whole of November, after which I shall personally donate a box of chocolates (delivered) to the person who gets the most questions correct. I'll throw in a bonus if the winner can get the answer to 6 (which I think is far more difficult than the rest!). Mods are welcome to try since they've got no better idea than anyone else 😀

To make life slightly easier, if the letter is in lower case, then the word is either 'a'/'an' or 'the'

Have fun:

Thought of a better way of doing this, to encourage posting. If you get the answer, post it on here. If you get it right, then you 'bank' the answer and no-one else can count it.

Hi curry 22.

Yep, those are all correct.

Funny thing is that even though I only compiled the list today, I'm struggling with some of them. Just as well I wrote the answers down 😀

Well, you're level with curry22, but the new rule's a nice idea, though deciding the winner will be tricky 😀
