something you won't be facing when the quiz-masters discover you have been on here.

From the quiz sheet/entry form:

'Could we please ask you not to post lists of questions on the various answer sharing sites that are available on the internet, simply asking other people to supply the answers? Our compiler works hard to ensure that the quiz is a stiff but fair challenge for the many enthusiasts who look forward to is appearance every year and we allow a generous two months for completion. All the answers can be found using the internet and reference books, plus a bit of lateral thinking.'

The closing date is 31st January.

I didn't have time to do this quiz because of other commitments but the answer a friend of mine came up with was 'As pants the hart for cooling streams' which is sung to the tune 'Martyrdom'.
