In a dictionary?

Nice try Dave ! Unfortunately I was thinking of something else - the dog immediately follows the Cobra in this.

Yoga? I've heard colleagues who do yoga referring to cobra and dog poses, but I've no idea if they are in that order.

You are right Barry - the dog pose follows the cobra pose in many yoga programmes and also in the sequence known as the solar salutation. Over to you.

Which former Derbyshire fast bowler had the nickname Stan?

 

[Jsybarry]

A couple of clues: not British but European and was at Derbyshire in the 70s and 80s.

 

[oldfrenchhorn]

It might be the Dane, Ole Mortensen, but he was playing in the 80s and 90s I think.

 

[Jsybarry]

Oops - I looked at him representing Denmark in the 1979 ICC Trophy, but his Derbyshire career was from 83 - 94. Over to you.

In which game to you find both a doll and a spike?

Volleyball

 

[oldfrenchhorn]

Volleyball

Sorry no. I think it has a spike but never heard of the doll.

 

[oldfrenchhorn]

Just to add a bit, the spike is sometimes called the iron.

 

[oldfrenchhorn]

To help out a bit, this game will be found in Berks, Bucks, Glos, Oxon, Northants and Warks.
