They sure are!! The only ones I easily knew where the sport ones, but a lot of the rest I guessed.

Nothing wrong with 17 Susie, heck that's a really good score considering how hard those questions were. I think anything over half is good.

MOTTO TO LIVE BY:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming.

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"

I tied with Bryn - the history of that Thatcher woman was not part of my upbringing, I seem to have avoided the genesis of jigsaws, I thought Andrew Flintoff was from Trinidad, and who on earth is going to know where Jamie Oliver shops?
