Thank you @MI5 for pointing that out.

It`s a typo and should read Magwitch NOT Mugwitch. I`ve now corrected in the original post.

Sorry for any confusion.

Thank you @Cairdeas

pleased you joined in the quiz. Just to let you know, the quiz is normally posted early but answers can`t be pmd to me until after 12 noon and then everyone has until 12 noon the following day to send them, so no problem when you see the quiz, and, of course, if you don`t know an answer you can have a guess [correct guesses still count].
