How knowledgable are you

[Caribeing]

What do you know? how is your knowledge? If you were asked What is the capital of England
Who is the President of the USA Who is Barry Manilow Who was the first actor to win an oscar
What does GK stand for in the authors name Chesterton, Who painted the Laughing Cavalier? Would you know "offhand" or would you have to Google or would you "not care"

Not very at all, my general knowledge is shocking. I can be quite bright but I've no memory whatsoever so I'm useless at facts, figures and any pub quiz.

I suspect we remember the stuff that interests us at the time. Back in 1975, my old Dad said, in the way Dads do, "If you knew as much about Maths as you do about T Rex, You'ld have no problem with your "o" levels!
