"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?"

"6 I didn't get Johnny Johnson and the Bandwagon either, but I love that video! Thought the song sounded familiar, but maybe I'm getting it mixed up with the Scooby Doo theme tune."

I've come up with 2 names. But I'll guarantee they're not right. I've gone with forename and surname using the link. And I've answer both with the same name.

"Good Morning I have allowed Onion, as an answer, although onions, leeks, and garlic are part of the same genus. Elephant Garlic is according to some accounts most closely related to leeks. But it is a mute technical point. If you are as sad as I see. https://sites.google.com/site/knowyourvegetables/know-your-onions/know-your-elephant-garlic Anyway scores on the doors Texas Iron
