While Charles was at the supermarket he bought seven things including, a Lime, a hose, an apple, some chocolate and some rope. He bought two other things both of which are in the list below, what else did he buy?
About 4), March, April and May are all Spring months, whereas August is in Summer. Maybe April is the odd month because all the others mark a change in season. Or maybe August is odd because it was named after an actual person. Too confusing for my little brain.

About 5), my WAG is yellow, because each red and yellow had been named seven times, and now the period recycles. Too confusing for my little brain.
“They” sing a bunch of little songs, but “Eidelweiss” was sung alone by the Captain, wasn’t it? Oh, maybe Maria joined in towards the end. It was done in a “Take that Nazi bastards” way, which I didn’t really get. It’s just a song about a flower.
Everything Charles bought ended with “E”, so I guessed “apple” and “orange”, but the acronym solution is probably correct. You can’t trust people who use Charles as a first name.
I thought the true/false one would be easy, until I realized that the clues themselves could be true or false. Then my head exploded. If anyone solves that one, I’d love to hear how you approached it.
rundugrun Well done, Charles buys eggs and a sandwich.
UncleBill & avacado - April is right, but not for the reasons you’ve suggested. See if you can find out the real reason.
** Movie Quotes. ** Edelweiss and Cheesemakers are both right. Only two, Tolchock & Damage, remain unsolved. They’re pretty obscure but here are a couple of hints. Damage is from a teen comedy/satire and Tolchock is from a film which was (at least in England) banned at the directors request.
Also, number one is very sneaky. Try using a calculator
Here’s what I got for #2:
1)F, 2)T, 3)T, 4)F, 5)T, 6)T, 7)F, 8)F, 9)F, 10)F, 11)T, 12)T, 13)T, 14)T, 15)F, 16)T, 17)T, 18)F, 19)F, 20)T
It is one of those questions that if you go wrong anywhere the whole thing may be wrong.
I’m going to bed now so I won’t be able to comfirm any future answers until tomorrow but I’m sure they’ll all be done by then. You’re almost halfway there. Keep trying!
