... maybe one day this will be a norm, ( experimenting already, ) an expensive norm to own one, just think, for all us disabled people who cant use our legs for walking...but would we have to abide by our air traffic rules...maybe even hold an air traffic licence...a licence to fly..

Great answers!
But I will ask to think again:

Rammel for 13

Jackie for 5

JaneS for 8

Patricia for 16 (not the shampoo! LOL)

Hue and Tint are Television color items - very important.
Other Hue items might be Huey & Louie  ( Hue & Lou )- Relatives of D. Duck or Scrooge McDuck.
It's the WINDMILLS

          THIMK

RAMMEL

It looks like there might be more than one correct answer for at least some of these. The answers given all seem valid, though I guess not what the creator of the Trivia wanted.
It's the WINDMILLS

          THIMK

Bubble, there is an old saying about being head and shoulders above the crowd, which has been shortened to "Head and shoulders.." It's not necessarily related to shampoo. I agree with Rick. Is there a central theme the quiz creates had, I mean, besides the one given?

head and shoulders
adjective
To a considerable degree; better; outstanding

so_P_bubble

Yes there are all valid, but maybe you can come with valid alternatives?
The original quiz is from England, so maybe that makes a difference on how the idioms are used.

This is going to be an interesting Quiz. As I see it all of the "wrong" answers so far, are what is the most used/said in the US.  I'm also sure that other parts of the world have a different view of sayings.  So, --- in the interest of learning --- On with the games.

#16 - Head and Tail
@5 - Fun and Fancy

Have all the quiz questions been guessed correctly or corrected? 
I've lost track?  :dizzy:

I think 8 and 13 still need answers.  They are ones Bubble said to re-think.

Vanilla, you were on the right track, but.... think again!

Rammel, sorry but check again each item.

This should not be too hard to solve.

Editing: Rammel, sorry!!!!  You are totally right in your answer. I should wear my glasses before answering! LOL
