The Seeker Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Don't click on the spoilers if you don't want to be blinded by my lack of general knowledge. 1) Which UK city has the smallest population, Nottingham, Cardiff or Bristol?Um... Cardiff? 2) How many countries beginning with the letter M have held the Olympics?I can't think of a lot of countries beginning with M, so I'll guess 0. 3) Which Shakespeare play contains the character Edmund –'Macbeth', 'King Lear' or 'Romeo and Juliet'? King Lear? 4) During which month is the The Mayor of London’s Show held?er...September? 5) Name two London Underground stations that contain all the vowels.I really have no idea.

Chalky Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Hey Guys, The quiz is from my blog. Sorry about the countries with M it question - think it was meant to be places-bit of a crap question I know!! If it makes you feel better-we got that one wrong as well! So how did you all do?

_Laurie_ Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Hi Chalky...Welcome to Songfacts.. I didn't even attempt this quiz... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalky Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Ha ha! A political movement - I guess it does sound like that. We'll be at the pub quiz again next week so if you're interested, I'll post more questions and hopefully they won't be so London centric, usually they're not. If we win there's a chance I might not remember them since the prize is a gallon of ale ;-) Chalky http://terriblelovesongs.blogspot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
