"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?"

"8 plus 1 from Friday I know a bit about canals having travelled south down the Suez and both ways on the Panama canal, have also travelled down the Corinth and Kiel canals Panama is a slick operation with ""Mules"" pulling the ships through Also you would think to travel from the Atlantic to the Pacific via the Panama you would go east to west but by a quirk of geography the canal follows a south east track"
