all people called quentin call themselves Q.
so pet names jimmy (five letters), hal (three letters) ed (two letters) and Q (one letter)
so quentin is my wrong answer.

also the metro is a comic, nearly as bad as the evening substandard.
nobody ever wins on those things.

I know, but it's all my brain can cope with in the morning. Plus the letters page is always good for a laugh, and you haven't seen the travesty that the Manchester Evening News is these days. ;)
