    Gone a bit quiet this thread, so I thought I'd ping one in.....

    34 clubs in total contested the old first division in the 1960's.
    Which of those clubs amassed the most points in that period, and which got the least?

    QPR definitely got the least.

    The most....I'll guess at Spurs

    Spurs was a real punt, based on their double win in 61, year of my birth, and me not being able to remember any other Div 1 winners....

    What is the national flower of Australia?

    (I'm about to get on a plane home, so feel free to continue without me)

    That would be the Golden Wattle...

    Here's one to test your memory:

    Peter Thornley from Stoke-on-Trent was one of the most famous performers on TV in the 1970s under his professional name, what was it?...

    Having lived most of my first thirty years in Brixton and, knowing nearby Streatham quite well, there really isn't much to choose from. An ice rink, the old Cat's Whiskers venue, a couple of cinemas and Madam Cyn's luncheon vouchers brothel is about it! I'll guess ice-rink...

    there are at least three different temperature "Guinness' "...Guinness, cold and extra cold (but they are all the same brew)
    Bottled Guinness is another
    canned Guinness
    Guinness Red

    expect there are others

    Guinness Light had a short career cut even shorter by poor sales and crap taste

    Bit quiet on here going into the weekend, so I'm going to throw out a question.

    Who has played QPR, Barnet, Sampdoria, Lecce, Sunderland, West Brom, Derby, Millwall, Preston and Toronto?
