    The identical twins Amy and Ano? Born in Georgia in 2002, they were stolen from their mother and sold on a child adoption market not long after - and recently reunited.

    Not sure what the suitcase has to do with it though...

    The mother was given a suitcase and told the dead baby was in there..and not to look as it would be too upsetting ... .they buried it in the garden... years later they checked and it just had twigs in it.... they had been duped

    Cheers yorkie.

    Another football question: There has been just one occasion when both Celtic and Rangers finished outside of the top four in the top flight. When was this, where did each finish, and who finished in the top four?

    1964-65 season when Kilmarnock won the league followed by Hearts - I think Hibernian were one of the others up there but i'm not sure about the fourth.

    That'll do. Dunfermline finished third and Hibs fourth. Rangers were fifth and Celtic 7th - one spot behind Clyde who are now in danger of dropping out of the bottom division. On the last day of the season, Hearts were top, 2 points ahead of Kilmarnock, and played them at Tynecastle. To win the title on goal average Kilmarnock needed to win by at least 2-0 - and did. Had goal difference been the rule, Hearts would have won the title by a country mile.

    Over to you

    Cheers BB. Which music group, still going after 50 years, were given what the group considered a ''silly name for a group'' by a neighbour who thought they all smoked too much weed ? The name continues to this day.

    You got there Yorkie. There has never been anyone in the band called ''Doobie''in contrast to eg. the Almann Brothers (with two actual brothers) - a Doobie is a west coast American slang word for a joint, and their neighbour suggested they called themselves that because in the early days they did little else but smoking dope and playing the odd guitar. They all thought it was a stupid name but couldn't think of anything better and so got stuck with it. Turned out to be a great band in the end however and still going now. Over to you.
