I think a Steward's Enquiry was indeed needed. I did misread my source when I checked the information. However I was thinking of coxless pairs in Atlanta in 1996, so I shall DING Optimist on the run, and give him the Gold Medal for answering the first part with the answer I was thinking of. Over to you, Checking on wiki, the other two occassions were 1904 in St Louis Tom Kiely in 'Men's All-Round' which was a forerunner of the decathalon, and in 1952 in Helsinki, where was a wait until the last event on the last day, when the team Equestrian jumping gold was won. i would have been impressed if anyone had got either of those two.

Well that was a good guess.... In one of those Olympics Great Britain only won a single gold medal. Who won it? And for a bonus point where, and what year?

Great Britain

The only one I could have a guess at is that they were all born in the same place, but where that is I do not have any idea.

Were they Godfathers in the Mafia?

Omphalophlebitis is infection of the navel in new born (animals) so I suspect you are right. I guess only Adam and Eve would be able to show their midriffs

For those who suffer from the fear, a tiny little ding

What is Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia The fear of?

I believe he was born in Downend in Bristol ( I went a post christening party at a cricket club he was involved in). If he did mot stray far from home, it could be Gloucestershire.

When you say 'stoned' do you mean he had been smoking waccy-baccy, or that he was subject to a rather gruesome method of execution? Or am I missing the point of this question?

I think 'peta' has something to do with Stone, as in Peter. So I will guess at a statue

I use the old faithful GSAK. You can load multiple photos on that, and publish them in one go, you still need add them one at a time, however it is far quicker than uploading them one at a time via the webpage

In the speakers corner, A Big Daddy Ding-ding-ding End of round one Over to you

Thank you for that ding What name is Shirley Crabtree better known by?

Arsenal

Would it be a team such as Cambridge University?

That's a Ding, Ding, Ding for each of those answers. Over to the Yorkshire one

Try a geocaching event, such as this one: Winter Warmer #5 Events are designed to meet cachers, there are several more in the area in coming weeks. Try to get to one of these, I am sure you will be made welcome

Thanks for the DING. A lucky/educated guess there A return question - what are the three peaks in the Yorkshire Three Peak Challenge?

I think I posted a question about this a while ago on this very topic The only characters I can think of that are associated with sporting event are mascots, and I guess these are the mascots for the Olympics in Brazil next year. The predecessors are Mandeville and Wenlock, from London 2012.

Ding Spot on with your first thought - he is the chap behind bars. Over to you

Thanks for the MacDing I have remembered that I answered this time..... So here is my question: In which game would you find 'Jake the Jailbird'?

I believe a 'spurtle' is a porridge spoon, so I will guess it is for a porridge eating competition.

I don't know myself, however my sister is an expert in North American geography. She will know. I think I'll ask her...... As a guess, and the answer is correct for 50% of 'state' questions, I will have a go at Alaska

DING That's got this ball rolling again Over to you
