Ok let's keep it entertainment based
In the film Airport, what is the name of the airport?
It was supposed to be in Chicago - so it should be
O'Hare International ??
Si vis pacem para bellum
They didn't use the actual name but a fictional one which is the one that is needed
Stuck on this one - I admit to looking at the secondhand videos on the market in Witney on Saturday - but no luck - no googling, so I thought if I just happened across a copy of the video !!! Beats me !!
cheers

Chicago is the right area and the fictional airport was named after a dead president.
Would he be the one with the memorial ? Lincoln perhaps (guess ???)

Lincoln International is spot on.
Over to you
Cor, that was luck - I nearly put Kennedy !!! -

Oops,
So given the big hint from Dr Vick.
What shape and colour was Mr Bump?
I know he is not RED
He might be GREEN
But in reality I am not sure
That was a cunning reply I think he may be this coloured but I seem to remember white bandages on a sort of "egg" shape
Si vis pacem para bellum
DING
He was round, and blue with white bandages.
Near enough then !! But digging in loft and finding old books I could swear he was more egg shaped than round !!. However - on the subject of books. Who writes about Kay Scarpetta ?
Si vis pacem para bellum
as I am reading 'Body Farm' at the moment I shall refrain from answering, but if it is unanswered when I finsih the book I will answer then
OK book finished and it was written by Patricia Cornwell
RING A DING !!

OK continuing with fiction, who writes about Hieronymus Bosch?
Michael Connelly writes about Harry Bosch I think (tried lone coyote but didn't get too far) prefer Grisham or Cornwell !

PS - One of my favourite books - a good straight forward moral tale - an honest man facing, and overcoming life's challenges for unselfish reasons. An unfashionable stance in this materialistic age !!
