+TheOldfields Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Blimey. Just shows how far you can get with lots of guesses. Next... why have no caches been placed on the Islets of Langerhans? Quote
+Team Noodles Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 No landowner agreement with the GAGB! :laughing: Quote
+civilised Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Because it's a part of the kidney and no one wants a cacher's trail showing the way. Quote
dodgydaved Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Because it's a part of the kidney and no one wants a cacher's trail showing the way. They are actually clumps of glandular tissue in the pancreas and are responbsible for producing insulin :blink: Quote
+TheOldfields Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Hmmm. Do I ding Beach_Hut for being first, or dodgydaved for the detailed answer? I think it has to be Beach_Hut. Over to you. Quote

Why thank you :-) OK, keeping with things medical, what is measured using the Bristol Scale? Minds out of the gutter - it's not what you think! Quote
+Beach_hut Posted May 3, 2013 Posted May 3, 2013 Poo. Yep you can have the ding for that. It's a scale to measure.... Ermmm... Solidity. And on that note, over to Betelgeuse Quote
+Beach_hut Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 OK, it's been seven days now, let's open it for anyone to ask the next question. :-) Quote
+Team Noodles Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 "Betelgeuse,Betelgeuse,Betelgeuse!!" <_< ah well, guess that didn't work either.. Quote
+Pharisee Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 OK, it's been seven days now, let's open it for anyone to ask the next question. :-) Ok... here's a quick one to keep it going' Ludwig van Beethoven was a very prolific composer but he only composed one opera. Any one know what it was called? Quote

+TheOldfields Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Well thank you. First person (or at least first first publicised person) to use an ATM in the UK was? Quote
dodgydaved Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Reg Varney - off the bus IIRC it was in Enfield and I am sure there used to be a cache celebrating the event :unsure: Quote

dodgydaved Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Ding dodgydaved - that didn't take long Ok it was cup final day (respect to Wigan). The 1946 Cup Final was special for several reasons: (Derby County 4 -1 Charlton Athletic) The 1st after WWII. The teams were given bronze medals and gold medals later - shortage of gold - so the first time teams had 2 medals. The first where the same person scored for both sides: Bert Turner OG then scored for Charlton: But........what else unusual happened?............ Quote

+martin&lindabryn Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 thanks for the ding on yet another guess the 18 miles of train track between Selby and Ferriby is though to be the ??????? line in the UK? Quote
+MartyBartfast Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Well if that's the Selby in Yorks it's certainly not the highest, so maybe the lowest. Quote

+Simply Paul Posted May 14, 2013 Author Posted May 14, 2013 Quietist passenger line, thinking of a report I read in the paper the other day? Quote
Slytherin Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Marty got it, it is indeed the longest stretch of straight track in the country. Quote
