I`m thinking i may have made my clues a little too hard! So to give you an insight into my warped mind here is the solution to No 11.

Q. God starts the week from a distance
A. Latin prefix for a god = Dia
Start of week = Monday = mon
Distance is quite simply D
Therefore PF member name is ... Diamond!

Good luck on Number 41, it`s probably not as hard

1. The green eyed monster
2. The four-wheeled bug
3. The yellow thingy

Now, my associations are, of course, indubitably correct, now I must combine them together.

Hmm...

Perhaps it's some sort of one-eyed thingy instead?
I'm sure the eye is important.

rosie waters has a much too mundane answer.
