Quiz #9

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 04 Dec 2006, 18:27

Well, it's this Friday night, people. 7.30pm ... unless you're going out for a night on the tiles. (dirty stopouts!!!)

And it's going to be the EASIEST Quiz ever!!!! You'll have to all be online at the same time or Bob's gonna do his usual get-in quick and grab the easiest ones. Just wait till you see what I've done ...

You just have to decipher the clues quickly and post fast! I suspect it'll be over quickly ...

Which is why I've DOUBLED the questions!

Yes ... not 30, but 60 ...

Points and to spare for all!

Of course .... all bets are off after that ... Any quizzes I do in the New Year, will be back to normal!

I fully intend to be a really dirty stopout

I won't get in until after 10.00pm. I'm a volunteer helping to run the local youth club on Friday nights.

No galavanting for me this Friday!!!

Not to say that I'll be quick enough with the answers though!!!

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 04 Dec 2006, 22:25

Well, if people want to change the date ... tell me now ... majority rules as always. I'LL be here!!!

That'll be after Eastenders????

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 04 Dec 2006, 22:29

Not Thursday. I intend to be "entertaining" someone on Thursday. No ... you can't ask!!!

Izzie · Post by **Izzie** » 04 Dec 2006, 22:34

We have to ask now

Who is it?????????

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 04 Dec 2006, 22:40

You're asking the wrong question ... and no-one you would know anyway. So stop it!!

Now, pick a suitable night with others ... or Friday it is.

Izzie · Post by **Izzie** » 04 Dec 2006, 22:48

Ok then what about Sunday ???????????

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 04 Dec 2006, 22:58

I'm not the one you need to ask. I'm okay with whenever.

Why's that then??? Has your vacuum cleaner broken down again, eh!!??

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 05 Dec 2006, 09:44

Jeez ... you put up a post for people to know about the Friday Quiz and you get bushwhacked, hijacked AND the 3rd degree!!!

It's still Friday 7.30pm until 5 or more of you come up an agreed alternative. Sorry, but I make the rules. (Taking a page out of Grand Master Dada's books, when he did that!

)

Porty, do you mean passe? (Can't find how to get the wee mark over the last "e"). I'm sure my family, who have been calling me the short form of Clee (for Cleopas) (except my mother when she's in full "mother mode") for years, will appreciate being called passe!! It's a damn sight more preferable than Cleo, which is a girl's name!

Don't you have a nickname, or a short form (other than the ambiguous title of Porty you have assumed?) that people call you affectionately? Hmm??

Mamba ... there still might be questions left when you get home from your club,

There will be ONE more place name quiz, after Christmas and before New Year to round off our first season. (don't worry, I got more for next year! You can suggest dates for that quiz to be held and I'll go for the most popular.

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 07 Dec 2006, 17:55

I'm having to deal with a couple of problems that have arisen ... and Friday night is the only time I can do it.

So, I'm going to post up Quiz #9 anyway tomorrow night ... but I'll get online as soon as I can to start letting you know who's first with each answer ... though I fear they will be too apparent.

Honestly ... they are easy ... so it would be nice to get a few first timers having a go as well.

Catch y'all later!

Vacuum cleaner? What's that then?

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 08 Dec 2006, 19:16

One hour and sixteen minutes to go, contenders ... please have your atlasses, maps, reading glasses, helpers, internet and assorted paraphernalia and fingers at the ready ...

Black Mamba · Post by **Black Mamba** » 08 Dec 2006, 19:17

Hope there's some questions left for me when I get in after the youth club tonight

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 08 Dec 2006, 19:18

There's 60 questions ... and maybe a bonus one ....

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 08 Dec 2006, 20:37

Here you go ... just for those interested! I'll mark correct as soon as I can ... IF you get them right!
