The answer to the present given on the sixth day of Christmas is wrong by the way, the presents given on the previous five days were also given. I know I'm being pedantic but it stops alcohol-induced fights breaking out and you'll be thankful...

Here is a link to site that has many free quiz's just click and scroll down to see the list. I have used these and they are very good.

I set a Christmas quiz and asked folk to name Santa's ten reindeer. Some teams got seven or eight and some got nine. I read out the list and when I got to Olive there were a fair few strange looks.
If you listen to the Rudolph song, it clearly says "OLIVE, the other reindeer, used to laugh and call him names!"
Like I said, just a wee bit fun (THECORBYLOON)
Sorry giveup - the sequence seems to have gone a little awry - good luck any way
