Twenty years slogging around the country, for dull work, as well as away travel, comes in handy for this round :thumbsup:

Being a bit of a train nerd has hopefully helped with a couple of the questions.

Cue me getting those ones wrong.

I'm looking forward to the set of questions on which service station is the last option before leaving the motorway for >< team for those that drive to away games.

Seemed a big ramp up in difficulty this week to me.

No, it's 'either' of them.

Not what the question asks.

But on the basis that you have answered the question as written, what happens with the two names you have given and one of the names is wrong, Do you still get the point or do you only take the first name and if that is wrong you don't get any points.

'Either' is an exclusive rather than distributory term in this case.

'I have two tickets, take either of them'

'Thanks, I'll have the ESU one'

However, if two answers are given (which quite a few entrants have done) the correct one will be taken if one is wrong.

Not an issue thus far as I think no one has got this question wrong yet.

I can see the answer to question 3 causing fist fights.

I assume that it is as the crow flies and from ground to ground - I have given my answers and checked it out and think I am correct . However Brighton Lines is the judge and jury. Fingers crossed.

It's a good point. Although I'm pretty sure the answers have been the same whether by road or walking. I often wonder whether a crow would take the shortest route anyway.

As a rule, I go by the shortest road distance. There have been clear winners thus far although I appreciate this one is pretty close.

It's what is known as the 'Aston Villa Question' with regard to these quizzes. Previous entrants will know. It's happened on only three or four of around 300 questions so far so I guess I should be okay with that.

All done. A mix of the appliance of science and pure guesswork as usual. Included some of my working out for extra marks!
