The usual, how long did the 100 years war last.
And I suppose you haven't googled 'pub quiz questions' or you would have found loads of sites listing questions....

Not sure of what you guys drink specifically, but I saw a show on the History Channel the other day about Whiskey. Turns out the Jack Daniels (like I
said, don't know if JD is big in the UK) is made in a dry county. Which means they can't drink it where its made. Your question could
be...
Which whiskey is made in a location where it is illegal to drink it?
I'm not scared!!! I'm just marking my territory.

What is the only part of the human body that never changes size?
A: Eyes
As I keep thinking of the random knowledge that I've built up over the past few years I'll add to this thread.

Yes! runs on the private line from Whitby, but can't remember where to, (not very far though). Cheers Ray
To make a car go faster, just add lightness. Colin Chapman - OR - fit a bigger engine. Chippy

Where is the prince of wales original hunting lodge?
topical question - at the end of the valley next to mount Snowdon (opposite end to bets-y-coed - rather lovely place to stay as long as your practical
and don't expect every mod con).
Where is the largest hydro power station in the uk?
Also topical - across the lake from Bets-y-coed (although i only think this is the answer).

Which premiership team has the second smallest capacity ground?
(i actually don't know the answer to this one, i think its Wigan Athletic - with Blackpool definately having the smallest). Perhaps the tie
break question could be - what is the capacity (25,138) or perhaps what is the most people who've been to the ground? (25,133 for a match
against Manchester United on 11 May 2008)

Nillson, Neilson or something like that or are we going further back than that?
The original Tainted Love would be another good one.
Also what belongs to you, but everyone else uses more than you?
Your name
