Saturday (and Sunday) Fun* Quiz - Anne Saws

[Bucketeer]

I was away in bath-time dream land earlier and for some unknown reason the Friday Night Quiz that used to be on here not at all regularly wafted into my head. I think it's a good idea as a mildly entertaining brief diversion from the suffocating drudgery/pure joy of modern life (and I've got some crap a prize that needs a home).

So I propose a Friday Day/Night Quiz, with A REAL LIFE SORT OF PRIZE.

 

I've got the bones of a disappointing skeleton of a quiz in mind and a sort of prize.

Any suggestions/criticism?

I need to stage it tomorrow so I can get the prize posted out on Saturday but would it be better at a set time in the evening or, the option I'm erring towards, leave it up all day so people with different schedules can all join in and spend a quizzically painful ten minutes they're never going to get back? Or I could just return to sleepy dreamy bath-time land and we can all forget this idea ever happened. WHATEVS.

 

The prize would be £50 worth of rail vouchers, valid as a cash equivalent on any UK train line until June 2015, a perfect amount if you want to gambol across the beautiful countryside from county to county in the North or if you want to travel one stop down the line on a train smelling of armpit in the South East.

I received these as compensation for a delayed journey and I won't get round to using them as I am re-recommencing travels abroad on Sunday, so hopefully this way they won't be wasted.

**This prize comes with no guarantee, cash equivalent, fancy pink bow or inappropriate touching.

 

[AlabamaShrimp]

Shit I was right up for the inappropriate touching too as far as the quiz goes I think it's a good idea so long as it's not all sport and music questions.

 

Needs a tie breaker or something just in case any gets Iver excited and Googles everything

[Bucketeer]

All the questions will be car-related and un-googlable. The majority will be picture based, I reckon.

I'm thinking the 'leave it up all day and PM me your answers and reveal the winner in a star*-packed results show tomorrow night' option is probably best.

[mercrocker]

I'm IN, especially as on lateshift tomoz

[Sloth in a bowl]

I'm iin, but I will be crap at spotting a Hillman Hunter from a rusty wing mirror picture.

[Bucketeer]

Little obscure knowledge required.

I'm aiming* for a 'Fort Boyard crossed with Going For Gold' vibe. With monkeys.

[meggersdog]

As long as Henry Kelly is asking the questions and not Lesley Grantham.But if it has to be please don't let him have a webcam.

[PiperCub]

On night shift tomorrow so will give it a go (though I'm crap at this sort of thing).

[Jim Bergerac]

Sounds good, not sure I have a massive amount of obscure knowledge though.

[chaseracer]

I'm iin, but I will be crap at spotting a Hillman Hunter from a rusty wing mirror picture.

 

Amateur 

 

I'm in.

[EssDeeWon]

Im in, im no good at these things but it beats watching bloody Benidorm.

[eddyramrod]

In.  If I can tear myself away from Benidorm....

[chaseracer]

Is it tomorrow yet...? 

[AlabamaShrimp]

^^^can we have a pre quiz quiz?

[Albert Ross]

Can the monkeys fly?

[Bucketeer]

[EssDeeWon]

Can there be loads of questions on the SD1, please?

[Timewaster]

I'll give it a go. See just how little I know.

[Bucketeer]

Honestly, knowledge will be of limited value in this quiz.

Having eyes, being able to guess and wearing lucky socks are just as important.

[Ghosty]

I'm in, RTVs are dead handy.

[RoadworkUK]

This sounds gr12. Especially if there could be a Krypton Factor style assault course or flight simulator

[Bucketeer]

It's time for Henry Kelly's Fun* Friday Quiz.

 

Knowledge/intellect not necessary.

 

Once all the questions have been posted they will remain here until this evening. Answers PM'd to me by, say, 19:30 this evening to be eligible for the prize. Live glitter-packed results show a short while after that.

I'll post a copy/pasteable answers sheet at the end of the questions. Use if it's handy, don't if it's not.

Unless otherwise stated, something like half a point awarded for make of car (eg;Ford) and two points for make and model (eg:Ford Focus).

The questions are designed to be mainly ungooglable and unobscure and there are NO trick questions. Just random crap cobbled together.

Hi everyone, I'm award winning actress Sally Field, otherwise known as Sally Traffic, with some breaking travel news (and the next questions).

 

We have unconfirmed reports of an accident involving a miniature truck carrying what we believe is yoghurt.

Over to the scene.

 

 

Shocking scenes I think you'll agree.

Anyway, my questions are thus.

Yo bitches. Question 19 is the bonus round. Ahhhh yeah.

 

Question 19 - At precisely 11:58am today I fired a wooden toothpick from the cannon of the model military vehicle shown below next to a scale for scale. How far did it go (in inches)?

 

To help you out, here's some more information.

 

This is the toothpick projectile used, next to another one for scale.

 

These were the weather conditions at the time of the firing.

 

This is the mighty cannon. It takes roughly 3lb's worth of force to pull the spring back using some baggage scales and it was fired at approximately at 45degree angle.

 

The results have been videod and will be aired on the results show.

Within 1 inch gets 5 points, within 2 inches gets 4 points etc.

 

Stay tuned, the (hopefully) final part coming up soon.
