Very pleased by 10/10 for me. Was sure about 8 or 9... bit 50/50 on a couple but educated guesses were right...

Knowledge of cricket, football, alcohol, literature and general pub quiz stuff useful.

Most of my knowledge about English towns and cities comes from football excursions following the Albion.

9/10

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

8/10 not too bad

 

[The Oldman]

10/10 for me too, much to my surprise.

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

7/10 - but if they hadn't made it a multiple-choice it would have comfortably been 0/10, educated guesses or elimination for all.

'What it means to be English' - what a load of tosh

 

[Razzoo]

10/10 too. Good little quiz.

Tossing bumpooper questions

6/10 ffs

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Descriptions of Croydon included "football" and "office blocks" while Coventry was summed up by "cathedral" and "two tone music".

Office blocks okay, but 'football'?

[Thunder Bolt]

9/10 Got the Plymouth/Portsmouth wrong

There are loads of signs in Pompey referring to Charles Dickens.

I guessed the needles one, but knew the others 10/10.

 

[GT49er]

I'm shocked and amazed. I only got nine out of ten - didn't know the George Eliot/Nuneaton one.

 

[AmexRuislip]

8/10

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

9/10 for me. How could l get Salford confused with Slough?
