Time for a shameless plug (am trying to help a mate out) but I've been doing a music quiz for well over a year now; it's not a trivia quiz but more a quiz where a topic is picked and you have to come up with as many answers as possible (can either be a band or a song). For example, if the question was "name as many songs or bands that are to do with gardening" then you may have the Lightning SEEDS or FIXING A HOLE by The Beatles in your answers. The winner is the one who can come up with the most answers. A new question appears each Sunday so there will be a new one tonight (hopefully!). There's only 3 of us who do the quiz at present but it'd be great if more people could join in. We are also struggling a little these days to come up with new questions so any viable ideas/contributions of any kind will be welcome. Address is: http://quizzy.suddenlaunch(.)com/ Who's up for it?

should point out that when you're on the site, you need to sign up as a member first of all before you can post messages but it's an easy enough process to do.

Natalie, You're doing it right, just can't duplicate answers that's all. Probably should've mentioned that. Devious, eh. ;-) Will put some answers on tomorrow, feeling knackered now.

Sorry Andy, I'm here under false pretences. I thought the message board mentioned serious music. Len
