Re: General Knowledge quizz

1. Day of the Triffids

5. False

Re: General Knowledge quizz

Here are my guesses AB.
1. Day of the triffids.
2. 'All of me'. (Why not take all of me?)
3. Stew.
4. Blue.
5. True. Cellulite, commonly know here as 'Onion Bum' because of the forming layers, does not occur in human Males, thank God for that, we have enough to contend with, ie. hairy nose's, ears, and faces.

Re: General Knowledge quizz

1. a) Pygar = Barbarella. b) Gort = The Day the Earth Stood Still. c) - Triffids = The Day of the Triffids.
2. Banned Sinatra Song - My Way
3. ??????
4. I don't think a patina is a specific colour. It depends on what surface the patina is found on. It can be a tarnish on the surface of metals (e.g. verdigris) or a natural ageing/wearing/rubbing effect produced on wood, ivory, painted pictures, etc. which darkens the surface or produces a sheen on a surface. Indicates age and wear.

5. Cellulite - orange peel effect or dimpling of the skin. Men can have cellulite but it is more commonly a female condition.

3.
There was a big battle at Monte Cassino during WW2
Where the allies fought for a long time against Germany and the Italians which ended up as a pyrrhic victory.

I have not heard of any other battles for the other two examples so would guess they are all Monastories or Abbeys.
