Note: The first five books of the Old Testament are known as the Five Books of Moses but the book with the 10 Commandments in was the second book. They are:- Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy.

Points for the obscure question about 'The Mousetrap' are:

woo - 15
K-G - 3 (your reference was not technically the name of a play but I liked the answer)

Googling is interesting because you quite often need the right key words to get the correct answer. You also need to pick the right reference when you have googled - there are usually thousands of references that come up.

With the latest obscure question I have had different, wrong, answers from people who have googled but they have been very near!!!

Questions are up. Got to catch up on 72 emails I received and am busy this weekend so may not be back for a few days - unless we get snowed in as the forecast says we might.

Don't worry Kandy, I made these harder just in case my internet crashed again. As I might be offline for a while I thought I'd give you something to work at. :D

Well done, Kedi - 6 points

Although your answer to the first question was not right I liked it and have given you 1 point. Your answer to the second question made me laugh so I have given it 2 points.
