Been having a bit of a clear out and came across a quiz book, so thought I'd revive the old "Pub Quiz" that Tyke ran a few years back. Trivia, but not as tough as Pandora's! -1. Who was the US politician after whom the 1919 Prohibition Act was named? -2. Who was the brother and sister pairing who won the Wimbledon mixed doubles in 1980? -3. What does the Scoville scale measure? -4. What was the name of German terrorist Andreas Baader's female partner...? -5. ...and what was the name of the urban guerrilla group they ran? -6. In Cockney rhyming slang, what are "porkies"? -7. Who was C-in-C of the UN forces in the Korean war until relieved of his command in April 1951? -8. Who painted "Bowl of Fruit, Bottle and Violin" in 1914? -9. In Holst's "The Planets" suite, which planet is the Bringer of Jollity? -10. According to George W Bush in 2001, what product do he and Tony Blair both use? -11. What is the main ingredient of soubise sauce? -12. What word means the bending of light when passed through a prism?
