I'm plouging through this quiz.

I've nearly got this one, but stuck on the last part:

Soup Tin
Mr Trotter
Torch
Ms Kirkwood

I've worked it out as

Can-del-light

but can't parse the Ms Kirkwood - the only thing I can think of is service, but how does that tie in to Ms Kirkwood?

I agree it is unlikely to be Noel, but if it was just "poughman's" without the "picke" I would definitely say Christmas Lunch. (but why add pickle, unless it was an oversight by the compiler) Incidentally, it is now officially 2019 here, so Happy New Year to all!

I'm stuck on a few more.

Could 38 be Presents under the tree?

For 36 I can get 2 morrow = tomorrow, Doris = day, Mtangoy = tango/dance in my, but I can't work it out!

No. 2 I read it literally as wrap in the sun

No. 44 I get Holy/Holly for Buddy, Batman or Hood for Robin

No. 19 Could it be Christmas is coming?

All help gratefully appreciated.
