I did get the cash machine question right, I have no idea how I know that other than the sneaking suspicion it has been in a quiz before, but perhaps in a newspaper because I remember the picture. 1967 though, blimey.

I'd gone for eorl, hoping it would be allowed.

A lot of the UC questions seemed fairly trivial, the Maths ones especially. A level standard for max and min.

I feel like the business school deserve to lose for not knowing the Manics.
