Who Is This Then

Is it Gonfra Burton ?

 

Well, it's not Hoover or Biro either. But you're getting the idea.

 

A pure guess, Bartholomew Mousepastry?

 

My wife said Trump - so I told her to open window

 

So close - weren't they both in the same field of endeavour ? And 'Mousepastry' is in common usage too.

 

Absolutely, I used both words in a zoom meeting with my grandchildren yesterday!

 

Isaac Newton ?

 

Michael Faraday ?

 

Close, but wrong nationality

 

Charles Darwin

 

C'mon Andy. Surely you've seen a picture of Darwin ? Who was English also, I believe ?

 

I know he had a big beard, thought the picture could have been younger

 

Alessandra Volta? I had to google who the volt was named after

 

You got it.
He was one of the people whose work made motorcycling as we know it possible. He invented the electric battery and did early work investigating spark ignition.

 

Thanks Flay. Good choice of challenge. Given the ‘current’ lockdown situation, I was ‘shocked’ it took us so long to find that ‘spark’ of genius to figure it out.

To be fair, he looks even grumpier than me.

 

Well when lockdown ends, you'll soon be recharged

 

Positive thinking!

 

I would too

 

Sorry for the delay, had completely forgotten, easy one....

 

Ain't it annoying when you've seen someone before but can't quite put your finger........he's a Sherman, also confirmed by his tie, out of some cop, sitcom, hospital series. Even if I think of the series I won't know his name so nope sorry, don't know.
