A quiz for Sparks
« on: September 25, 2011, 10:10:PM »
Hi Sparks, I've been drawing up a timeline of Sheila's life and as you're sufficiently knowlegable about this case to write an article in The Times about it and seem to love competitions, I thought I would use the dates as a quiz for you. Your task is to state what significant events in Sheila's life occurred during the years or on the dates below.

Apologies for misspelling 'quiz', what a plonker, please don't zap me Reader, I can't modify the heading to correct it - unless someone knows otherwise.

By the way, Sparks, would you mind if I forward your replies to The Times?

Chochokeira, good evening to you.

At some point in the future, do you propose to show the forum the answers? It is an interesting exercise, I hope he rises to the challenge!

Thankyou.

Thankyou.

I shall certainly do that, Blodwynflower. I might even send the answers to The Times so that David Aaronovitch can compare these to Sparks' answers.

Happy mugging up, Sparks!

Aw, come on, don't be shy, Sparks. It will only take a man with your grasp of the topic 10 minutes or so to do this.

If you take too long I'll think you must have your pals mugging up for you!

Of course, anyone who wants to have a go at part or the whole quiz is welcome to do so.

Especially as it looks as though Sparks has decided to go on his hols this evening....

May I suggest a prize for the forum member with the most correct answers.....a chocolate covered troll - or should that be the booby prize.....!!

Chocolate's too good for a troll, Blodwynflower. What a waste  ;D

But I think you're right, there should be a prize: how about a night out with Grahame if it's a woman and a night out with ............, if it's a man?

Deal?

I think we should have one of these quiz nights every week, lots of members are online, all the trolls have scarpered and it's gone quiet as the grave on the forum. We're all being as good as gold.

I see what you mean about the chocolate.

A night out with Grahame or a female forum member.....hhmmm, now that WOULD be interesting.....

Deal !!

p.s: message to Grahame.....it's ok you're safe, I've got NO chance of winning.....!!

Like the idea of a quiz night.....
