Oops, thought I had hidden that whole thing. I guess you can't have paragraph breaks within hidden tags? Sorry for that vague clue, however vague it may be.

41, 56.1%. took me 30 to get disease, up till then I had no clue, I'd forgotten that _. ________ often indicates a bacterium name. Then I had to think of a ten letter disease, I discounted the answer at first till I remembered it has two Hs.

Today is another bust, because although I know what this is, I'm never going to be able to guess the family of freshwater fish carp belong to. So I'm just going to look it up and save my evening.

yes, I got all the first sentence apart from the title in 31, no chance of getting any further.

the fact that there are no five letter oceans for an island to be in should have been a big clue - river is the only other likely candidate and there can't be too many famois things on river islands.

22. The hyphenated title looked love a French name, and sainte at 2 sealed it, but my knowledge of Parisian landmarks is pretty poor and it took my brain kind of a long time to try to fill in the blank blank de Paris.

It looked like it might be some kind of text or work of art at first, so I'm not too surprised I needed a good while to figure out it was a food item.

Ok, so it's this one from now on! The base64 thing, though. I guess that's a good "out" if you really want to give up.
