Hi Bryan question 18 are you refering to queen ann? if so this is in doubt, this from tudor history:

The legend of Anne Boleyn always includes a sixth finger and a large mole or goiter on her neck. However, one would have to wonder if a woman with these oddities (not to mention the numerous other moles and warts she was said to have) would be so captivating to the king. She may have had some small moles, as most people do, but they would be more like the attractive 'beauty marks'

Apart from that without googling, Plimsol line, Arther Askey, .5 and Ronnie Barker, and maybe Coke so pretty crap really.

And as for being at the quiz!! we would have been if you hadn't locked me and Brisley out!!!!!

I'm afraid you'll have to take that particular grievance up with the member of staff who created the doner group, and here's a clue, It wasn't me

Hi Bryan, above your avatar it says "Administrator" we all know you are the technical "Brains" of this website so stop trying to shift the blame.
