"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?"

I ran a pub team for 25 years and as I was in charge it was claret and blue all the way. Needless to say we were also shite with a biggest defeat of 21-1. I signed an Italian import (workmate of a player) called Lorenzo Nappi whop thought he was the dogs but sadly made me look like Maradona! He wasn't too pleased when I subbed him at half time! Last game ever was a Cup Final where the Referee sent 7 off and we lost on penalties. I'd had enough by then!

"""Fun"" fact. My old Sunday team used to be called maracana because the guy that started the team went there. We also has a kit loosely based on the national colours Ironic because we were shite"

"Not quite sure on how much info you wanted so these were my correct answers - Prince Harry 1 ? Megan Markle 1 Gary Lineker 1 (Guessed because he tweets!) Windsor 0.5 or 1 ? George V (0.5 for just a George?) France 0.5 So 5 if you are feeling generous, 3.5 I think if not! Did they really do do on the Delaware?! ;-)"
