Timmy the dog, belonged to The Famous Five (Enid Blyton)😉

[pgn]

I think I jumped from Famous Five to Jennings and then Tom Swift - never got into the Secret Seven - Scamper never featured, my loss 😂

[gmarkj]

Bah - of course it is the Bears that play football, not the cubs.

Oh well, pleased with my red thinker.

Thanks @Mi-Amigo and well done everyone!

Can’t believe I got myself a Red Thinker (a rarity for me) only to find out I still came bottom of the pile. 😂 

Enjoyed that quiz though thank you Mi-Amigo and well done to everyone for earning a Thinker. 👍
