This week our team was named Jim's Exam Nerves (as Jim had had a picture framing exam that day and we couldn't think of anything else).
1. What was the occupation of Jack the Ripper's victims?
2. What did the crocodile swallow in Peter pan?
3. What is literally translated as the tenth month?
4. What is the shortest and bloodiest of Shakespeare's plays?
5. Which part of the human body has the thickest skin, is it the back, the palm or the thigh?
6. Who wrote Jekyll & Hyde and Treasure Island?
7. What instrument are you playing if you perform a 'rim-shot'? (tee hee!)
8. Traditionally, which bird's feathers should you not use as decoration in your house?
9. Which African animal kills the most people each year?
10. In which hand did Charlie Chaplin hold his cane?
11. What do you call a male witch? (wrong, wrong, wrong!)
12. How many stars are there in the constellation of the Plough?
13. How many fingers do you use to draw a bow?
14. Which Keanu Reeves film was the first DVD to sell a million copies?
15. What is the lowest hand in poker that beats a flush?
The Picture round was all Hallowe'en themed with witches (East, West & Sabrina), guess the country (Romania), guess the films (The Sixth Sense (which we got) and Sleepy Hollow (which we didn't even though
morbid_sparks gave me a copy which I watched the other week - grrr), who was the odd-one-out out of Herman, Eddie and Grandad Musnter and Gomez Addams.
In the end we managed to come second (our nemesis Billy & the Bowel Movements beating us by 2 points - grrrr) and won two bottles of WKD (yummy :/) and 2 bottles of Holsten Pils (between five of us).
The Boys V Girls round was a lot of fun. I even managed to guess one of the songs before everyone else (Sheryl Crow). His Lordship and Jim managed to have a conversation about Doves before shouting out Doves as the answer to the song. The girls won by 15-11. yay us!
Until next week then...
