"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?"

"14 Middle stripe on the Spanish flag. Oh no, I might have to glance slightly up from the pool bar to work this one out"

"Sorry chaps site has been a nightmare to load today. So sorry to hear that East about your son in law. I've never been to Paris but always loved Florida. The parks were better IMO in the 90's and early 2000's though as they tended to be based around themes my age group had grown up with. Sadly Jaws, Back to the Future and Charlton Heston's Earthquake are long gone! Todays was inspired to an extent by Mad Dog's Mandela Effect Quiz. Apologies if I have duplicated any of your questions MD. WHAT’S THE COLOUR OF …….?

"17 despite having been to Florida and Paris but it was back in 80s in the case of Florida and 12 years back for Paris. Thought I was going to hate it but really enjoyed Florida. The last trip to Paris ( I'd been once before) was a bittersweet affair as it was an overnight stay with my dying son-in-law and our young grandson, and daughter. It was arranged and paid for by a charity associated with the hospice. We were there mainly to help out with the Wheelchair and Pushchair. No queuing though."

21. Which I'm well happy about as I've never been to any of these places Mainly guesswork. If it wasn't multiple choice it would have been very (VERY) low

zebthecat 9:30 Tue Aug 8 I seem to remember hearing a story that some fella tried to sue Disney because the ride broke down and he couldn't get the song out of his head! It is indeed irritating!

15 today thanks The Its a small World song holds the record for the most publicly performed ever as it has been on a loop in muliple locations for decades. It is also a contender for the most irritating too.

17. Thanks.
