Barney Mysteries Quiz

[Daisy]

Vosta?

[Rob Houghton]

Vosta was actually in Rilloby Fair. This is a character Old Ma mentions having known in the past - a character who featured in Mr Galliano's Circus.

Was it the lady with the parrots? I cannot remember her name but I think it was something like Madame Petronella?

[Rob Houghton]

hmmm...you're very close, as Madam Petronella was indeed mentioned in The Rilloby Fair Mystery as one of the circus folk Old Ma knew, but she isn't actually in Mr Galliano's Circus - the Galliano parrot woman is called 'Madam Prunella'.

The character I'm thinking of is male, and features in all three Galliano books. He doesn't own an animal...!

[snugglepot]

Ok, how about Sticky Stanley the clown? I do not remember if he owns an animal.
I guess I need to read these books, again.

[Rob Houghton]

Yes! Old Ma mentions Sticky Stanley the clown, (and also Volla and his bears.)

Over to you!

[snugglepot]

At last! Thanks Rob.

Now for a new one.

Where did Barney spend his first night in Ring o' Bells Village and how did he get into that place?

[Lucky Star]

He spent the night in Ring o Bells hall. I think he got in through a window?

[snugglepot]

I'll give it to you. He climbed up the ivy to get into a window.

Over to you.

[Ambersmum]

Going to add another question to get us going again

What was the name of the cook in the Rat A Tat mystery?

[Daisy]

Mrs Tickle

[Ambersmum]

Yes, your turn

[Daisy]

How much does it cost to get into Ring O' Bells Hall?

[Ambersmum]

Sixpence?

[Daisy]

It was indeed. I was hoping nobody was going to give an updated price... if that has been altered in later editions! Over to you.
