CAn wer have some examoples you have already cracked so we can see the method of solving?

Chocolate Quaker could be Fry, Cadbury or Rowntree...probably Cadbury though as the others have disappeared really (Fry's was bought by Cadbury & Nestle took over Rowntree)

I feel that starry spice should be anise (star anise) but can't work out another bit to it...

Up with the lark - Ralph Vaughan Williams??

Robert Stephenson is the Rocket Man

Cricket's 111 is Horatio Nelson

I think the chocolate Quaker may be Rowntree - I think they were a Quaker family.

Gateaux Brulee- Alfred the Great (he burnt the cakes)

Cricket 111 - Admiral nelson (111 as a score in cricket is known as Nelson)

Gateaux Brulee - Robert the Bruce

chocolate quaker is Elizabeth Fry isn't it?

See what you're saying about Alfred the Great, I was thinking of the Battle of Bannockburn

Hmm, could be Admiral or Horatio, but they're both right.

Interesting about Alfred the Great v Robert the Bruce. Why do you think Robert the Bruce, McDreamy?

Oh, sorry , yes the letters are wrong for rowntree

Ha ha ha! X-post

We'll go with Alfred the Great, shall we?
