Pretty much. It's where your 2 forefingers sit if you were typing 'properly'

Its for touch typists, those who don't look at the keyboard when they type as they're reading a manuscript or the like

In which year did the Bank of England £1 note cease to be legal tender?

 

[ouro]

First time it's my turn.

Need some help with questions and where better to turn than the intelligent, imaginative and somewhat mental members of the SMB.

Think I'm gonna go for the trivial pursuit categories

Geography
Entertainment
History
Arts and Literature
Science and Nature
Sport and Leisure

And then just have General knowledge for the last 10 questions

Any decent question suggestions will be much appreciated

Thanks in advance

What does the HP in HP sauce stand for? Houses of f***ing Parliament, apparently. Didn't get THAT one right during Thursday's quiz.

EEE LORD SHE WAS THIN
