The easy/silly quiz thread

[Dave7]

The idea (if its not been done before) is to post a quiz type question.
Must not be too deep/difficult. (Can be from Dandy or Beano)
Answers to be supplied within, say 24/48 hours.......but someone will probably get it within 24 seconds

I will start.

I bought some from B&Q this week.
I could get 3 for one pound or
5 for one pound or
8 for one pound.
What are they ?

 

[Tim Hall]

Presumably 35 for two pounds and 358 for three pounds.

I'm not sure how @Tim Hall didn't win. He was just rather more subtle than me. What happens now? Am I supposed to ask a question?







Well, apart from those two.

He will have to split the prize.

We'll split it like this: I'll take the glory, @MikeG has to set the question. (Lazy? Me? How very dare you!)

So what are the rules here? Is this a typical internet Trivia quiz, with no (insert your favourite search engine here)-ing for 24 hours, or whatever?

Assuming it is, then let's try this one.

Excluding marsupials and humans, name a bipedal mammal.
