The Christmas Carol quiz

[Big Jenny]

Could someone help with two of these, please.

7. Dressed in fewer clothes.
17. Mr. Flintstone incline the body meadow.

Haven't seen No. 17 asked before, so it's probably blindingly obvious - except to me. I want it to be Fred something (Scrooge's nephew) but cannot find any refrence to a surname for him anywhere.

Any help would be much appreciated. Closing date looming.

Can you explain please - are all the answers characters in Dickens' Christmas Carol, or are they church Christmas carols?

[Big Jenny]

Hi Boxtops,
The quiz title is a bit misleading, but I gather all the answers are related to the Charles Dickens story A Christmas Carol - not carols that you sing!
They are not necessarily characters, though some of them are, but others seem to be just words relating to the story.

He is Scrooge's nephew. The surname of which you didn't know.

[Big Jenny]

Well, I'll be blowed. I had looked for that EVERYWHERE but could find nothing. I can't even find it in the book.
