You burden me with your questions, you'd have me tell no lies

As promised to you, my faithful, delicious, succulent reader, here are the answers to the quiz I posted a week ago.

James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James

I don't often work with animals, but every so now and then I run a pub quiz in this unassuming venue (pictured) with my chums Lee the penguin and Dan who isn't a penguin.

We each get to write a round of questions, and on Wednesday night my round was themed 'famous Jameses'. For example, James Cracknell. Or Clive James or James T Kirk. Or James and the blue cat.

So pull up a pew and leave the lectern light on, dear reader; have a go at my James-themed quiz. I will post the answers in a week's time, so you can get your next door neighbour to check your answers.

Just a final point. It may be just a bit of fun, but if you google the answers, I will cut you, I will cut you real bad.
