"If you are stuck at home and bored like me. How about exercising the old grey cells? I have for a number of years run quiz nights and couple of times a year. I was due to do one tomorrow which is now cancelled So I have a bank of questions sitting in my computer's hard drive. They are quite eclectic in their nature. I am thinking I could put up a set of questions for which you write down your answers. After 30mins or so I will put up the answers. DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS. before I post the right answers. You mark your own answers and post your score. I will then record the scores and at the end of the ""lockdown"" we will see who is WHO's brainbox supreme. Obiviously no looking up the answers (you only cheat yourselves) Word of warning these won't be easy questions as they have been devised for teams of six. Forming teams on here might be too problematic. So I'll try to pick out the easier questions. Any interest?"

"Just 4. Interesting to see how many high scores in this round. I suspect companies should just not bother and compete on price instead. * Or does that not mean Mgmt jollies / enough tax relief? ""And now, back to West Ham United Vs Manchester City. Brought to you by The Samaritans."" * Yes, I am being facile."

It did a fair bit of climbing when I was younger (mostly down caves). Not the proper mountaineering stuff.

George Mallory died attempting the first climb of Mount Everest in 1924. They only found his body in 1999 and it is suspected that he and his climbing partner made it and died on their way back down from the way the bodies were facing when they were discovered.
