Ok so here is the anagram round for the (now rather dull I know) impending pub quiz

[handlemecarefully]

1 "Spice in 'em"
2 "Dolls in thongs"
3 "Cross held jurist"
4 "To wed tru'st love"
5 "A lethally new jig"
6 "He's fat, smart & rich"
7 "Cold now? Engage skis!"
8 "Means abhorrent music"
9 "The giant consumerism father"
10 "Northern seer, do help dude ride!"

There are all Christmas themed. I don't actually have the answers, the Pre-School dad who put them together for me hasn't seen fit to furnish me with these (ha bloody ha, not!). I hate anagrams but some people like them apparently

And the quiz is tonight (and the chap who gave me the anagrams is still giving nothing away!)

housemum got no. 9 AGES ago HMC. Do keep up.

The answer was "The true meaning of Christmas".

d'ya mean you are depriving us of being quiz guinea pigs tonight to go and do the "real thing"
that really will not do HMC.
just promise me you will tell me what dolls in thongs was

have fun tonight

Thanks Norks

I tell you how we got on gigglewitch. I am sooooooooo nervous (this quiz is my 'baby')and I really hope it goes okay [tremble]

Didn't realise it was today! Hope it went well. Did any fights break out within teams? I've been to a few of these things and they usually end up with DH and my mother fuming at each other.

Just got back.Thanks for asking...I think it went well (didn't notice any argy bargy)

good one! what scores did the winners get
better than ours methink

and WHAT is blardy dolls in thongs????
TELL ME!!

sorry for shouting

London's lights!

The winners scored (I can't remember!!) ...I think they averaged 8 out of 10 on most rounds.

I am honestly very grateful for the input I got on mumsnet

at londons lights (eh? i'm from up north y'see)

at 8 out of 10 (pssstt-were they cheating or are there genuinely multi-talented people?)

and i think you should put the occasional, and moderately difficult "round" on here as you are so good at it We should get a new 'QUIZ' heading in the blue thingys.
do it
do it

PS now it's all over you are entitled to a large glass of your fave tipple

Go on then, I think I need a rest though (a bit like an old horse put out to pasture) ....but in the New Year I'll post a few quiz questions. I enjoyed it too (learnt something!)

Incidentally do you know which politician banned Christmas in England a few hundred years ago?

And because I am off to bed now, the answer is in this link
www.timetravel-britain.com/05/Dec/ban.shtml - don't open it until you've had a go

I know the answer. He banned all the fun stuff. Little wonder we had a restoration.

lol

my son is his namesake

You called your son 'Lord Protectorate'?

ermmm.....
that's short and catchy
