Gary's pub quiz.

ok, here are the rules. (which are completely unenforceable), no using search engines. Winner gets a free nights booze and food at my pub which they can collect at my pub on any 30th of February.😏

1. What unusual allergy does Lisa Stansfield have? (this maybe slightly tricky for our american friends, don't think she ever made it over there)

2. What is the collective noun for a group of owls?

3. There are two american presidents who had the same mother and father, but were not siblings, how is this possible?

4.What author sometimes wrote under the psuedonym 'Boz'?

5.What is the capital of Burkino Faso?

ps, that was round 1. Round 2 only when round 1 is answered perfectly.

1) she is allergic to proper work just like the rest of those free loading
t----rs

2) Roost of owls perhaps

3) All the American presidents have the same mother & father, Father Time & Mother Nature.

4) Shakespeare

5) B & F

😉

I beleive the term for a group of owls is a University

the others i dunno...a poor showing for me

I request another quiz please. I tried the last one but didn't know any of the answers. I also stuck to the rules of "no search engines". This time though I'm gonna cheat 😲 Google here I come 😛

You know, it's easier to get away with cheating if you don't announce it.

Hi Gary, yeah, go for another quiz. How about some of the things you had on the seperate sheet in the pub? You know the sort of thing movie taglines, song first lines and so on.

Did I say cheat? Oops 😳

3. What is the lowest score in darts that requires 2 darts?
4. What word comes before Way, Table and Works?

2. It is a parliament of owls.
3. The two American presidents are the same man. It was Grover Cleveland, who was the only president to be elected on separate occasions.
Thanks for trying you two, and if I get a request to do another one I'll do it.
Later guys.
Gary.

It is a murder of crows I think, and the product of a cob and a pen is a cygnet. I fully acknowledge your point on the American President question, my wording was imprecise, and I apologise.

ok, 23 for the lowest 2 dart score is correct. th is correct for the series, water is correct for the word, and Empire strikes back is the film. (why couldn't I put these in order😕)
Just the Simon and Garfunkel line to go......

2. According to Simon and Garfunkel, what was 'Every stop was neatly planned for.....'

a poet and a one-man band.

I guess you have to be a 49 year old geez as I am, to know this one.
