Hi all

I am completing a quiz above about Yorkshire. There are critic questions relating to local pub names. See below! Any help would be appreciated!

7. If you want both of these in your hands, you'll be outside
8. 25p around the pool table

Please help! Xx

Sorry criptic clues even. For example: robins misnamed friend: Little John Inn

Got number 8 now - crown and cushion. Only need number 7 now x

8. I would say BULL AND MOUTH - as 'Bull' is slang for 5 shillings, which is known as a bull, and around the pool table you will find 'mouths' ???

[7mayfield]

The Bull and Mouth is in Leeds

[7mayfield]

and 5 shillings is 25p.......but Crown and Cushion fits also.....they both fit the clue?????

[sheila-e]

Yeh good thinking. Both would work. What about number 7? I you want both of these in your hands, you'll be outside?

[7mayfield]

Well.....I would say 'Bird in the Bush'........if there is such a pub!!!

[7mayfield]

as ' a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush....and the bush would be outside!!!

[7mayfield]

Yes, there is a pub called Bird in the Bush, in Staithes, North Yorkshire :)
