Whisky Galore is the name of a race horse. Whisky Galore is the film version of the story of the SS Politician, a ship that sank off the coast of Scotland loaded with whisky. There is a card game called Whisky Poker.
A good enough answer, NZ...over to you.
I was actually thinking Red Rum, gin rummy, Whisky Galore.

Thanks Theo. I put down your answer first but rejected it because of the mix of rum and whisky - not the best mixture.
Where was the biggest indoor political rally in British history held?

Was it Earls Court ? Something to do with Mosley and the British union of Fascists in 1939 ?
Yes, that's it. Very close to the start of the war Mosley held a rally. Some estimates say that up to 50000 people went.
In future, if it is my turn to ask a question I may as well pass it to you Cologne, because you always seem to answer mine!
Cheers NZ. I will try to hand it back to you with a historical one - the funerals of 2 historical personages used the London Underground for transporting the coffins (at least part of the way) - whose funerals were these ?
And it's over to you Dave !
Which English seaside town is associated with the Māori source of anchor ropes, baskets, and waterproof capes?
Yup. You are speedy this morning, Dave. The cabbage tree is neither a palm, nor from Torquay. It was, however, most amusing to watch my Kiwi wife bristle on a visit to Cornwall, when a local called one a Torquay Palm.
Over to you.
Thanks Dave. Who made their international debut against Japan in 1987 and then represented Japan in a World Cup in 1999?
