Please remember - the clues appear in the order you will need for your answer.

Cecil the Centipede was extremely nervous. It was his first attempt at dance lessons and he had no idea where to go. All he knew from the enrolment form was that his first lesson was for a LATIN AMERICAN DANCE. He also knew that his teacher was a VENOMOUS AFRICAN SNAKE. That in itself was not comforting - co-ordinating all his feet would be the other worry. He stopped at the first door and knocked. At least he could ask for directions. A large pink bird looked out at Cecil and he explained his problem. "Goodness me. This isn't the right room." said the bird. "I'm the Flamenco Flamingo. You need to head two doors down the hallway to the - ."

Answer: (2 Words - 5 letters each)
Question 2 of 10
2. Amanda the WINGED NOCTURNAL INSECT was worried. Her young son Monty had been demanding to know more of his family history - but he was insisting it should involve a SUPERNATURAL TALE of some heroic ancestor. In truth there wasn't one. All the family as far back as she could recall were bland and uninteresting, and simply went about their nightly chore of flying into lights. She asked Tony why this was so important and he replied. "The kids in our class all have interesting stuff to tell about their family. Alan has an Alligator Allegory and Lenny has a Legless Lizard Legend. I wanted to have a - ."

Answer: (2 Words - 4 letters each)
Question 3 of 10
3. Petunia was a SMALL SOUTH EAST ASIAN APE and she was very depressed. She wanted to go to the ball but she was embarrassed about her hair. She couldn't do a thing with it and she wanted to look beautiful in case the handsome Craig was there. Her best friend Anthea had the answer. She swung across to Petunia's tree with the latest copy of "Ape Allure" and opened it at page 26. "This is what you want. A beautiful NARROW FABRIC STRIP. You can order it right now but make sure it matches your particular ape colouring. Mark on the order that you want a - ."


Answer: (2 Words - 6 letters each)
Question 4 of 10
4. Fred and Charlie were very prosperous gnus. Each had a LARGE WATER BIRD swimming in their garden pools. Fred's bird was white and Charlie's was an Australian native and was black. Fred had a problem. His wife had decided to have the whole garden redefined and colour co-ordinated. The landscaper was fussing and had insisted that the white bird would clash with the colour concept. He offered to have it dyed black. Fred relayed this piece of nonsense to Charlie who was aghast - "You can't do that to a bird. Why don't we simply do an EXCHANGE - my black for your white? Tell this fancy designer of yours that there will be no dying of birds. We will simply do a - ."

Answer: (2 Words - 4 letters each)
Question 5 of 10
5. Culpepper hopped across to where the animals had gathered by the large stone structure. One of the elders was sorting them into colour teams. Since he had stained himself from top to toe with his best BLUE DYE for today's festivities, he hoped to be chosen as a colour leader. There was much discussion as a group of red snakes were arguing amongst themselves as to who was the best. Culpepper just waited. He knew in truth that he was probably a fairly plain AMPHIBIAN but he felt that blue was his colour.
Finally the elder turned to him. "Oh thank goodness you are not carrying on like those madder adders. I have had my eye on you and I think you should be the blue leader. You are without a doubt a very worthy - ."

Answer: (2 Words - 4 letters each)
Question 6 of 10
6. There was trouble in the kingdom as the wedding of Princess Amelia the Chameleon to Prince Gary the Gecko was fast approaching. Amelia's gown was the problem. The weavers had delivered samples of all sorts of textiles, but she was insisting on her own particular craftsman. She had heard tell of a SLOW-MOVING TREE DWELLER who produced the most exquisite FABRIC and that's what she wanted. The king blanched visibly "But Amelia" he cried "everyone knows that it takes forever for that creature to produce even a few inches of fabric. For goodness sake - he only has 3 toes. Thus it is the most expensive in the whole realm."
Amelia stamped one of her feet and pouted "I don't care Daddy. I don't care how much it costs. I want the best for my wedding dress. I shall only consider - ."

Answer: (2 Words - 5 letters each)
Question 7 of 10
7. Elliot was a very handsome salmon and he considered himself quite a fine musician as well. Today he was auditioning for the Stream Strings. They were a string ensemble of some renown, but had just lost one of their best players - an ASIAN FRESHWATER FISH. Elliot knew all the instruments were supplied and he hoped the fish had been a violin player. The violin was Elliot's specialty.
The conductor greeted him on the river bank and introduced him to the other players. Then he gestured to the vacant seat and Elliot could see only a TRIANGULAR STRINGED INSTRUMENT. It was too small for him and it certainly wasn't the hoped for violin. He turned to the conductor. "Can't I play the violin? I could bring my own. I can't play that - for a start it's too small - it's certainly not salmon size - in fact it's a - ."

Answer: (2 Words - 4 letters each)
Question 8 of 10
8. Horatio looked at his reflection in the mirror and winced. He tried to fasten the button of his jacket but failed. If he were being brutally honest he would have called himself CORPULENT. He did not feel like like heeding brute honesty however, and decided to settle instead for well endowed. This was an important day for him. He was the first ERMINE to be elected Lord Mayor and he was off to the Town Hall to make his acceptance speech. His wife bustled in and caught him surveying himself in the mirror. "Well endowed ermine indeed." she sniffed. "You certainly have ideas well above your station. You are nothing but a - ."

Answer: (2 Words - 5 letters each)
Question 9 of 10
9. The new paintball park had been established near the billabong and Shane the STOCKY BURROWING AUSTRALIAN MARSUPIAL was very pleased with himself. It looked splendid and he was hoping it would prove a roaring success. There was only one problem. He didn't have a name for his enterprise. "Easy" squawked Julian the beautiful king parrot. "You are the proprietor. Everyone will come to have fun and a friendly BATTLE. Why not call it - ?"

Answer: (2 Words - 6 letters each)
Question 10 of 10
10. The job interviews for serving staff, food managers and waiters were well underway, but there were not many positions left. Arnold sat nervously clutching his references and watched as the other applicants emerged triumphant or downcast. As the horse departed he looked across at Arnold and winked. "I am now officially the Chief Sauce Horse. Start on Monday." Arnold let out a sigh of relief. Perhaps they hadn't filled the position of YELLOW CONDIMENT manager. He wanted it desperately. He certainly was a very well presented OLD WORLD GAME BIRD and his credentials were impeccable. His name was called and as he stood he decided he had nothing to lose. He would simply go in and sell himself. As he opened the door to the interview room he heard himself say "Good morning ladies and gentleman. My name is Arnold and I am confident that you have found your new - ."
