"If you are stuck at home and bored like me. How about exercising the old grey cells? I have for a number of years run quiz nights and couple of times a year. I was due to do one tomorrow which is now cancelled So I have a bank of questions sitting in my computer's hard drive. They are quite eclectic in their nature. I am thinking I could put up a set of questions for which you write down your answers. After 30mins or so I will put up the answers. DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS. before I post the right answers. You mark your own answers and post your score. I will then record the scores and at the end of the ""lockdown"" we will see who is WHO's brainbox supreme. Obiviously no looking up the answers (you only cheat yourselves) Word of warning these won't be easy questions as they have been devised for teams of six. Forming teams on here might be too problematic. So I'll try to pick out the easier questions. Any interest?"

"I am not ""disputing"", east. It's only a bit of fun. There's one ""port of call"" given that is not a precise as the others strictly, but I'm not going to bust your balls over it. Hopefully unhappy gilmore gets exactly what he ""expects"" in another round."

Well I didn't expect such a Geo-political dispute arising from a boat trip! But if you are interested here is a nice article on the subject https://www.irishpost.com/life-style/difference-uk-britain-british-isles-north-south-ireland-explained-85459 Although I would issue a word of warning if you are participating in the quizes that I put up don't expect the accuracy of a pedant in the round titles as part 2 of this round will prove conclusively when we visit another foreign port.

"Pikey I am well adversed in the geographical term that loosely refers to Ireland & GB's location. Britain does not include Ireland and ""Round Britain"" I would not expect questions relating to Ireland."

"Ireland iS part of the British Isles. Which is different to Great Britain (England, Scotland, Wales) and usually the associated islands (geographically). Which is different to the United Kingdom which is (politically) Great Britain and Northern Ireland. But not, technically, (I don't think) Jersey, Guernsey or the Isle of Man. They are neither in the UK but not ""overseas territories"" either. Crown Dependencies."
