"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?"

Also 7. Couple of decent guesses helped.

"Mad Dog 7:08 Mon Mar 15 Ha ha, I know you can operate on the brain, like removing tumours, through the nose these days but back t6hen surely just lobbing off the top of the head and taking it out that way would have been easier?! Mind you maybe they didn't want to damage the exterior body so to speak."

"6, if ""beetle"" goes likewise. Going to ""beetles"", why do I know the names of so many Paul McCartney albums despite never hearing them? Macca Bastard's like a plague."

"I just put Beetle for number 6. Does that count? If so, then 6 for today. I was more specific about the Beatle for number 10 :)"

Zico. Based on the stupidity of some people I've med I think the difficult for some is keeping the brain from falling out that way. Oh. 6 by the way today.

4 and three of them were guesses although when you put Tutankhamun in your options for 9 I wondered if I had got number 3 right! Slapping my head on 1 and 6. How the hell do you get the brain through the nose?!
