Good quiz, hard than it seems. Just questioning what a 'player piano' is as I'm not sure that clue works!

Favourite act of a 'strongman' was to rip a 'Phonebook' in half with bare hands, usually about 4 inches thick..... no mean effort.

What are crab grass and sand dollar? Must be Americanisms, because I've never heard of them.

"Crabgrass", "finger-grass", and "fonio"are common words used for "Digitaria sanguinalis" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digitaria). "Sand dollar" is a common word for "Mellita longifissa" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sand_dollar), but "sea cookie" and "snapper biscuit" are used in New Zealand, and "pansy shell" is used in South Africa. Wikipedia's article is titled "sand dollar".

I ve heard of sanddollar and am not from america, the uk , new zealand, australia or south america.

but dont ask me where i ve heard it haha. Like 90% of my english, i have no idea where i picked it up. It is a mix of british, american an very old and obscure english haha.

in this case david attenburough might be a good guess ;)

Maybe they are seaside-isms you are more likely to have heard about them if you life near a coastline or have an interest in sealife (or animals in general)

There's such a thing as a family court as well. So that should go for both. Also I find it a bit unimaginative to have fountain pen twice.
