Christmas Quizzes 2014

Question of the Day : New Year's Eve

Q: Here’s a list of adjectival (or descriptive) expressions that all occur in one Procol Harum song (list of titles here, index to song-words here)

A Breast-fed
B Emperor
C Mighty
D Milk-fed
E Wet-nursed

In the context of the song, one of these expressions is the odd-one-out.

A: Your letter of the day is the letter that comes, in the ordinary English alphabet, immediately before the initial letter of the first word in the odd-one-out expression.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, when we refer to 'the alphabet' in these puzzles, this is the sequence of letters we mean, in this order:
a	b	c	d	e	f	g	h	i	j	k	l	m	n	o	p	q	r	s	t	u	v	w	x	y	z
1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12	13	14	15	16	17	18	19	20	21	22	23	24	25	26
