Are you particularly fond of Deer? :deer:

My answers:
  1. Absolutely no idea… total guess… 17?
  2. Orion
  3. Your question is, how do I pronounce Betelgeuse, not how is it correctly pronounced. I pronounce it BeetleJuice, like the film. Ergo, we should all get the points for this one :rofl:
  4. Cerberus
  5. Ooh, I can think of 5… I’m probably missing a couple so… 7?
  6. Red, Roe, Fallow, Muntjack(sp?) and Seeka (I have no idea what a Seeka is or looks like but a friend’s dog was named after it!) and a possible couple of others?
  7. Muntjack(still sp?)
  8. Can all Hollywood films be wrong? Probably! So… false?
  9. Bolivia and Paraguay
  10. Churchill
  11. Game of Thrones
  12. Tower falls, monarchy falls, UK falls… thank you school trip!
  13. Think that’s the width of the track… 5 foot? :woman_shrugging:t2: Actually, if all Europe then it’s probably metric… 1.5 metres(ish)
  14. I don’t know what a link is but there’s 10 chains in a furlong in racing so distance?
