Achilles was the son of the mortal Peleus and the Nereid Thetis. He was the mightiest of the Greeks who fought in the Trojan War, and was the hero of Homer's Iliad. Not the answer. |

3 In which game would you use the royal fork Any game where a Royal is involed, either as a player or a spectator. For example: "One nearly scored a forking good goal there, didn't one". or "Fork me, that was a close shave". or "I say, for forks sake, at least get it on target Charles". There you go - the Royal Fork in action.  |

Answer to question 1 yesterday is Jason Alcimede sent her son to the centaur Chiron for education, for fear that Pelias would kill him - she claimed that she had been having an affair with him all along. Pelias, still fearful that he would one day be overthrown, consulted an oracle which warned him to beware of a man with one sandal. Many years later, Pelias was holding games in honor of the sea god and his alleged father, Poseidon, when Jason arrived in Iolcus and lost one of his sandals in the river Anauros ("wintry Anauros"), while helping an old woman (the Goddess Hera in disguise), to cross. She blessed him for she knew, as goddesses do, what Pelias had up his sleeve. When Jason entered Iolcus (modern-day city of Volos), he was announced as a man wearing one sandal And The Rest Is History  |
