+mongoose39uk Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 This question made me chuckle last night: This village is located in the Peak District National Park, and rests high atop the White Peak plateau. Also found in this village is the Church of All Saints and the Duke of York Pub. What is the name of this village? Etwall Elton Edensor Eckington Needless to say I got the wrong answer. ....sheeesh! I never get easy ones erm and the Church would be facing Penny Engine Lane? Quote Link to comment

+sTeamTraen Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 I just had my first case of a question coming round for the second time. Fortunately I knew the answer both times, so (a) I didn't "cheat", and/or ( I didn't feel stupid for not having noted the right answer the first time! Quote Link to comment

+Eckington Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I would just like to tell fellow quizzers that I was cheated out of a point by the RM filter at work today. It objected to one of the words in a correct answer and would not let me submit my results until I had changed the answer Quote Link to comment
