Quiz

Anyone manage more than my measly 6/10 on the Hertford quiz? That's one correct answer for each year I've lived here, although to be honest I did guess a couple (including the time of the last train out of Hertford East, even though I've never caught a train from there.)

8/10 Didn't know who the mayor was and didn't know the name of the Hertford Club. I should be shot if I got the Hertford Grammar School question wrong though [;)]

4 out of 10 yet again. Was just guessing at 90%. The only definite answer was that GK is not involved with Baroosh (thank goodness)

A polite reminder and not a moan; the answer re Hertfords mayor is at odds with the MAYOR link on Discover Hertford Homepage. I appreciate that it is difficult to keep such a large and excellent website up to date.

10/10 I think these are getting easier. Also if you can now see some nice Otters Jacobs Island, does anyone know where I can see some nice Beaver?

By coincidence.............. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/gloucestershire/4380276.stm Very topical, Mr Meldrew, but probably not what you had in mind.
