Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Well, I'm officially not going to be on next Friday 'cos I've got the day off, so I will happily stand aside and let the weeman win (hur hur - you lucky little man :D )

Good quiz altis :tu:

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Well, since there is no penalty shootout, I'll declare it officially a draw but we'll let homealone do the honours next week.

Landslide victory for the North-East though!!!

Sorry to all those who aren't football mad and were looking for more general knowledge questions. I just thought it was timely.

PS, Gaz:
Those pictures were hosted on my NTL webspace. Is this no good to you? How could I have done it better?

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Well, I wouldn't call it a landslide - more a 'can't be bothered with real work today' :D

EDIT: Mind you, I'm quite impressed with the amount I know about '66, bearing in mind I wasn't born for another 9 years :disturbd:

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

ok, I'll accept my punishment - I may not be able to do it until Friday evening, though. I'll firm up a time during the week.

Thanks altis, the picture thing affects pretty much all embedded (linked)pictures, websense must look for the <img> tags, wheras attached pictures are ok - but that wouldn't have fitted for the quiz format, so I don't think there is much you could of done. Appreciate the concern, though :tu:

Well, the avatars and, for that matter, much of this website is made up of images. Perhaps it only blocks those that are hosted on a different site or maybe it's just stuff on homepage.ntlworld.com.

Can you see this image?

yes I can - you may be right about 'homepage' being filtered.

I count myself pretty lucky to have access from work, so a few restrictions are expected. It is sometimes quite funny with what it considers 'adult content', often there is no relevance at all :)

- thanks altis, appreciate it.

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Missed it (but I wouldn't have done very well anyway) :D

Good quiz though Altis & well done Gaz and Nug (should have gone to a penalty shoot out) ;)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

I can personally guarantee that I'd have missed 5 out of 5 ;)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

I think this is the first time I've been glad I've missed a Friday Quiz :D

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

I'm thinking next Friday 26th May, 1900 hrs :)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

I would have got the first three right but only because I watched the documentary about it earlier in the week.;)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Looks good for me :tu:

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Right, I'm going to try to stick with this time, but there is a chance it may have to be delayed/postponed.

Sorry I can't be more informative, than that, at the moment, but it is depends on what someone else will be doing, and they haven't confirmed yet.

I'll post an update as soon as I know more... :)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

Sounds like you may be going out tonight :)

Looking forward to it, even if it is tomorrow in the end :)

Re: Friday Quiz - 19 May 2006
 

It is that I have to meet up with a friend & I'm not sure on the timing. I've just spoken to him & he reckons he can make it between 5 & 7, in which case we are still good to go, for 7.

- I'll try for today, if I can, even if it is a little later than intended. The only other thing that can go wrong is that I've finished off the questions at work & emailed myself with them, at home. Sods law says that email will be down ;)
