That was a gimme really as I had the very same last week at our local chinese.

 

OK, another music question.

 

Apart from the obvious, what do these 70s No.1 records have in common.

 

Dave & Ansil Collins Double Barrel

John Denver Annie's Song

David Bowie Space Oddity

Queen Bohemian Rhapsody

Ah this is a hoary old chestnut (or should that be toffee apple) which if I'm not mistaken goes back to the days when computers operators lived in air conditioned isolation and wore sandals with socks:

 

Christmas Day = December 25 = DEC 25, which one of our socially isolated computing geek friends might mistake for 25 in base 10 which is our familiar friend 25.

 

Halloween = 31 October = OCT 31, which said geek might confuse with the the base 8 number 31 = (3 x 8) + 1 in the decimal system used by mere mortals ie 25.

 

So you see DEC 25 = OCT 31

Samhainophobia is the fear of what???????????

 

I thought whatophobia was the fear of what ;)

 

Assuming it's no relation to the widespread "peterhainophobia" is it fear of zombies?

balloons is right ... but she is a bit older in doggie years

 

I only meant full years so if she was 10 she would be 70 in dog years if she was 7 she would be 49 in dog years ect

 

mandy ;)

 

Well going by the picture I'll go for 28, but this could be a trick question as it could be an old picture!!!

And the balloons has already been established.
