LOTR is quite hard-going as a read -gets bogged down at times but is a truly epic saga of heroism. Had a dog called Bilbo 20 yrs ago!

Seems we agree about Boromir, Steve - he knows his own limitations and is a truly heroic figure for this reason -most human and fallible.

Would probably have tried to cheat at the Trivia quiz but then would have bowed out honourably!:rolleyes::D

TLTWATW (1st in the Narnia series!)was a magical read as a child and still holds it's own now - have a thing about Turkish Delight because of it. Would be the White Witch in this case;)

Think those pesky hobbits might cheat but Boromir would be far too honourable.

Too many classical and opera questions for me today but I might be able to close the gap on Dave....but is it too late?

Almost neck and neck at the top....!

Whaddya mean Steve too much opera/classical? Two opera one classical, admittedly hard but then I have to suffer all this pop rubbish! :hidewall:

Surprised myself today, couldn't believe it when ten green ticks came up! A few guesses but not bad on the whole. :)

One is too many when the extent of your classical music knowledge is the theme from the Lone Ranger - "William Tell Overture" by Rossini...(one day that question will come up and I'll be ready!!)

Your score today won't be beaten I'm sure. So unless you make an almighty cock-up tomorrow, December is yours for the taking!!

I think that if no-one else comes inbetween Sue and Rindy today they will be on exactly the same points so that means it would be all down to tomorrow -a real nail-biter till the end.

Wish i had a better memory -I'm trying to remember what came after Difficult Music last time:(

Will read back through the thread there may be some clues!

Think Di's got her sums wrong. If no one else comes in between today I will be four points ahead tomorrow...

Not sure but I got 8/10 so have a feeling it might have been Literature I seem to recall doing well at that one.
Do you think there's a pattern to the topics? I know Sunday always seems to be Bible day!

For those who doubt my credentials as a dwarf (see yesterday's musings on Lord of the Rings) I attach a couple of pics to show my lack of stature. Both are from the 1990s but I haven't grown since (probably shrunk!).

One shows me dwarfed (!) by a 10ft-ish Scotch thistle in my garden in Wiltshire, in the other I am with my pub quiz team in Salisbury on presentation night. I'm the shortass on the end. Those were the days! :)
