I have just come back online and see that "haloed" has been given as the answer to 34a. I had put "haloeS" as this is an acceptable plural of halo, but now wonder if either option can be correct to the exclusion of the other?
If either fits equally well then they OUGHT to accept either. But it's quite possible an element of chance will be introduced by only accepting whichever the compiler though of first.
Having looked at the picture and the clue again there are actually two halos in the picture ! Albeit the one on the right is only half a halo ..so it's a bit iffy isn't it . It could be Haloes (plural) or haloed ..as in both the wise men are haloed .
I suppose the third one is hiding round the corner somewhere !
Hi sarumite, did you see my posting on poodledoo BHF question? Also I think the answer to no60 is zero as only names were listed and not numbers, it's worth checking out! Merry Christmas
Shaney, now that the after affects of the Cote du Rhone are slowly subsiding I can see that the baby Jesus is in fact not with halo as I had initially thought .... and the half halo looks as if it could be a reflection .. (but did they have glass at that time?) probably not ! Ohhhhhhhh I'm none the wiser, but does it really matter?? Thanks for your help and a very merrrrrrrrryyyy crimble to you. ;o]
Ternigapp, yes I did see your posting many thanks, but I am not actually doing the quiz, just looked for information after poodledoo posted his question.
A very happy Christmas to you also. (S).
A very Merry Christmas to you too sarumite...It doesn't matter does it ? Not with the amount of whisky I keep imbibing ..but ..it's all good fun !
All the best to you and may all your clues be easy ones in the New Year ...Cheers
Shaney xx
