No, you haven't spoilt it at all Aerolor and how would I know if you were right or wrong? I rarely participate in these because I don't know any of the answers but these two were easy for once.

Don't be impessed Mags - I've got a confession to make As you probably know, I didn't know them all - I had a bit of time to spare and so looked some of the answers up. Can I call it research - it sounds better than cheating
