Bit puzzled how I'm gonna get your name on the scoreboard when I post it though!
And you've got lots of brownie points for your use of the word 'young'. Keep it up!
Quiz ya! Page 5

But he's not, so might have trouble doing so.
Ben Ainsley got a gold for sailing, don't know what but i'm pretty sure it was a boat of some kind.

Oh alright ,alright, I am trying to work as well y'kmow!
Welcome mat (oops sorry) you get the point - well done!
scoreboard coming later and more questions but thing is off to finish a lot of work for now.
many thanks to all who have taken part so far. don't forget this is continuing until the end of the month so everyone still has a good chance.
Bi Bi for now. 
Ok, current scores are:-
All on zilch - anyone who hasn't yet taken part +
Graham bandage
Ian W
Perry Nium

Aaron
Griff

Sofa_matt
On 2

Jolanta Zofia Nowak
Massively in the lead but not on line at the mo is:-
Marc P on 7 points.
Jake How is still on a stunningly impressive - minus 73
Three questions coming very soon. for those who haven't played yet, it's first to get the right answer so you can answer just one question at a time if you like.
Will post at 7.30
All 1 point each:-
Q14/. ''How is writer Charles Dodgson better known?''
Q15/. ''Which current film star has the real name Mark Vincent?''
Q16/. ''Which well known TV comedian is currently filming ads for Nike where
he plays a rough mouthed Cockney football trainer?''
Ok, obviously all asleep and gonna let Marc p run away with it?
Never mind, it runs until the end of the month so plenty of time.
One more question I'll leave with the other three cos i have to go out to work now.
Multiple point question - 1 point for every correct word - just to complicate matters (for me!) I'll give you a point if you are the first person to say any word of the following abbreviation - then others can only score on the bits you got wrong.
Q 17/. ''What does the abbreviation M.O.T. stand for (as in vehicles)?''
Ministry of Transport I think it comes from? Kind of question my dad used to give us on quizzes as kids.
I believe that is correct...

I used to think so.
NONE of those words are correct!
thinking about what it refers to will give you the 'T'.
Thinking about the subject will give you the 'M'
Thinking about the purpose (safety) will give you the 'O'
Ooooh I like this game...
T=Test?
M=Motoring?
T is correct so 1 point
M is oh so close that I can't let it run for someone else - so, at my discretion, you get 1/2 point.
Answer was Motor.
still one more word and still three other outstanding questions above.
Really must go to work now cos running late. Check back later but briefly
cos early day tomorrow.
