The Friday Quiz - 23 July 2004.
Seeing as I frequent a pub quiz every thursday night - I thought I'd start posting up some of the questions for the SN smarty-pants crew to answer.
So here's this weeks 10 questions. (some easy -some "**** me!")
1. Name the Director of GI Jane, Black Hawk Down & Thelma and Louise.
2. What is Ponophobia the fear of?
3. Who currently has an album entitled "Under My Skin"
4. How many Munro's are there? (Scottish mountians) and...
5. What name is given to a Scottish peak over 2500ft?
6. What is a "Nodding Donkey"?
7. Who was Captain of the England Cricket team when they defeated the Australians in the 1953 Ashes test at Headingley?
8. What was the British Rail number of The Flying Scotsman? (anoraks on)
9. What Girls name is derived from the Bird's name "Thrush"?
10. Who wrote the Bond theme "Goldeneye"?

1: Ridley Scott
6: An oil pump for pumping oil from the ground?
10: Bono & The Edge wrote the track that Tina Turner performed. The score for the picture was by Eric Sera, and it contains portions of the "james bond theme" which was written by Monty Norman.
