Or do they simply possess a better general knowledge, and if so why?

My Daughter is a Manager in a Local A&E P.P you would not believe the tails, just for one, going in for an Asprin, that is only some of the stupid thing the tax payer has to pay for, " But the Staff dare not say a word"

[TWR]

Tales even.

Thank you for clarifying that, TWR. I thought that you had come up with a somewhat racist euphemism for immigrants!

[TWR]

Not getting into that rap D,T. How your weather?

[TWR]

I didn't think it would be too long before this innocent and rather fun post turned into the normal anti-immigrant xenophobic rant !

I got 10 out of 10, but the one about the age for jury service was a guess. I'm surprised a few people here got the one about the Paralympics wrong.

I got 10/10 but the dog ate my answer to question 8 so I was only given a possible 9/10. I can stay here but the dog goes back to Alsace!!
