Re: Guess the character
Ah, I was thinking Andy, so I wouldn't have guessed right either!
I'll quote Rob's riddle again, since we've gone over the page...

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

Re: Guess the character
Thanks.
I am probably the nicest and most genuine member in my peer group.
At first I was known to be "a scaredy cat" but when a friend's "life", and then, honesty was at stake, I showed true courage.
I was even able to be the first to stand up and defend another friend who had committed wrong deeds.
Who am I?

I am one of four children.
I get cross when I am left out because I am the youngest.
I once had a very prickly pet.
