Hi there madamzajj, this quiz has created a lot of interest amongst my friends who I have been asking for help. Could you let me have ALL the questions - not to enter the quiz but just for our enjoyment? Thanks x

[ladyalex]

Thanks for the info, murraymints.....I'm old and out of date! Used to be only the Morgan and the Harris.

[ladyalex]

oops, meant maggiebee not murraymints.....huge apologies!

[maggiebee]

No problem ladyalex, when I was at school there were 4 academies - Harris, Lawside, Morgan and Grove but times change. Lawside now demolished, Grove moved to new larger campus, Harris demolished and rebuilt and Morgan had to be largely rebuilt following a fire. You forget about these things when you live in the middle of it.

25. Old Tay Rail Bridge (Sir Thomas Bouch was the architect and the bridge collapsed during a great storm 100 years ago). New rail bridge was then built.
