Kevin Barry - that was an easy one! He had the ambush in his morning, and one of his first medicine repeat exams that afternoon, but figured that he'd have enough time to get to it afterwards - pity he was wrong

On a similar note - what UCD 2nd year engineering student and friend of Kevin Barry was executed by the British in 1921 after being captured during his companies attack on a group of Black and Tans.

The heart guy got a raw deal didn't he? He could talk to animals or something. Boring. I liked the blonde one I think she could use water( or was it wind)? She was pretty fine! For a cartoon anyway...

tintinr35 · 20-05-2005 1:46am

ya she used wind, linka from poland
gee used water oh how her name has taken on a brand new meaning

linka eh? I remember I considered asking my parents if I could have the doll of her which had a parachute on the back but I didn't get it in the end. Probably a good thing as you wouldn't want a girl's doll would you?

I agree though. I used to think it was the **** back in the day along with other stuff like James Bond Junior. Ah good times...

Kwame (Qua-me) is the conservationist of the group. From Africa, he has seen forests turn into deserts and wildlife disappear. He does everything in his power to save the world's endangered species.

Is it the Petronas Tower in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia?

Lisapeep · 21-05-2005 3:12pm

Yes! Well done, the antenna on the Sears Tower reaches above the Petronas Tower but this isn't counted in the measurement of it's height, whereas the Spire on the Petronas Tower is because its an architectural feature!!
