Off and running, michele!

7. Mulan

4. The Black Hills

Both good!

8. Lord Haw-Haw

10. Bactrian (and three humps sounds like overburdened and/or "grumpy"...)

Google tells me that there is/was actually a Trinidad camel with three humps (not from Trinidad, however), and once a freak dromedary with four!

1. Haiti

9. astronomical unit

...and the hits they keep a'coming!

Never knew that Lex. Any further suggestions on the three-humped camel welcome

Lady K - not wht I've got

6. Sweden

3. T.E. Lawrence (he of the movie Lawrence of Arabia)

9. Is it a light year?

manxman, Marian - good calls!

flotsam - it's actually 3.26156 light years if that helps...

Not one bit UW

9. What unit is equal to 206,265 times the distance from the earth to the sun?

Looks good, Fogfighter!

10. 1 hump = dromedary
2 hump = Bactrian
3 hump = Trindal

I reckon the 3 humped camel is called Humphrey

That's what I was looking for, flotsam!

Interested in the trindal, SD - didn't realise three-humped camels actually existed....

2. Rudolf Hess

It was indeed!

11. Erebus was the Greek god of the void. The void itself was Chaos.

I stand corrected, Lady K - my source claimed that Chaos was the god

It is confusing. Evidently, Chaos was the primodial being who started it all, and Erebus was her son.

12. Fender

I knew the right amount of letters because I was thinking: Singer, Hoover. Now my brain hurts

Glad it finally clicked, jb!
