Excelled ourselves this weekend and got 9/10.
Only our knowledge of pre-decimal coinage let us down.

Only 6 for me. We've been having the i on a Saturday for years now, and I never knew there was a quiz on page 2.
I thought Sark was more likely for for the language, but then I didn't read the bloody question closely enough. Didn't know about the groat, the musical term despite having studied Italian!) and the travellers' cheques (I thought Thomas Cook).

The groat was the one we got wrong as well.
We initially thought of Thomas Cook for the travellers cheques, but Jayne remembered they'd gone bust

I remember TC going bust. We were flying back from holiday when the news broke. We had landed in Birmingham and we’re just pleased that a) we were home, b) glad we didn’t travel with TC and c) weren’t still at the departure airport when the news broke
