Was it where the ice had formed over the hole they made in the ice?

You're getting warmer, but what did he stub his toe on?

You really have me thinking.
Was it a piece of ice that had been cut out, so they could put the boxes in the pond, and then allow the hole to refreeze?

That's it exactly. Got there in the end! Over to you.

Thank you, Daisy.

In Rilloby Fair, why is Roger not at the station with Diana to meet Snubby and Loony?

Because he was at the next station meeting Great-Uncle Robert?

That is correct Rob.
Diana makes the statement that she wished Great Uncle Robert had gotten out at the same station, but if he had we would have been deprived of that great scene when Snubby, Loony and Great Uncle meet at the house.

Your turn.

Thank you snugglepot!

okay - staying with Rilloby Fair - name the one of the characters from Mr Galliano's Circus that Old Ma remembers working with in the past?

Was it Oona the acrobat?

No, sorry!

Was it Mr Galliano, himself?

No - sorry!

It was one of the main characters though - someone who features quite highly in the Galliano books.

Probably wrong: Eric Butterbean?

Lal or Laddo? Lotta's parents?

Eric Butterbean?! Who's that?

No - none of those! Sorry folks!
