I thought I'd got away with it! Mr. Jessop-Smythe queried the question (and answer) and so after some deliberation with the Jury we decided to change the question to eliminate further confusion!Incidentally, the quiz wasn't posted on the forum until the 7th and the question changed on the same day as I had not received any entries at that time.
If you get the answer correct to the old question I'll let you have it though!
Good luck!:wink:

They were a great help..... and it was good fun too! They didn't know any of the brass band related questions though.... that took ages to find the right answers for!
Well done to the other winners too

Not just at the moment. Last year we discussed the possibility of reducing the number of quizes for this year. We'll probably run with 4 bigger quizzes this year. (Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter).lynchie said:
We'll let you know when we've decided.
If anyone is prepared to donate prizes towards the quiz, this could well influence and speed up our decision!

Spring has sprung!.
Any sign of a quiz yet? (Pretty, pretty please, its holidays and a nice juicy quiz would help alleviate the boredom). Well, we're just a bit bored, cus the admirable Mr Payn is keeping us supplied with his own brand of quizzes (roll on the next one Mr P). :wink:
