O.K. I admit it is not about my body parts, but you know what I mean!
Quiz time again, all answers are body parts, though not necessarily human body parts! (with some liberties in the spelling!!)
Please feel free to claim scores, or ask for clarification, but keep the answers out of this thread. The answers will appear in about 48 hours in my ongoing answers thread (which has cross references to most of my earlier quizzes)
I will respond to PMs

CHEERS!

They were all easy except for 1 and 8. However, I don't think 8 follows the rules.

Walrus missed No.1 as well, but I think No.8 is fair!
But I allow myself some 'Idiotsyncracies' (sp?)

I'd risk losing any street cred I ever had if I admitted to knowing Tiger Feet!

Repaire,

A firelock.

Or were you asking about its component parts? ( Cocking Piece, Upper Jaw, Jaw Screw, Cock Screw, Frizzen, Frizzen Spring, Lock Plate, Pan, Mainspring, Bridle, Tumbler and Sear - None of which are the answer to Q 16 :-> )

2, In what units are the heights of horses measured? Duck asses. As in "Nigel would have to stand on two bricks to kick a duck in the ass." Since Nigel would require 30 bricks to kick a horse in the ass, then the horse would be 15 Duck Asses high.

Spaw never fails to amaze me with his erudition. He even managed to slip a few correct answers in there (By accident?).
The oficial answers (with cross refences to earlier quizzes) are in my long term answer page SQ2
