jennyh Jan 2021 11:37am, 15 Jan 2021 5,392 posts	0 jennyh Eek, hope you’re okay after falling OS. We’ve had another correct guess from Ocelot Spleens, who’s also had the closest guess so far for year 1.

Ocelot Spleens Jan 2021 11:42am, 15 Jan 2021 29,764 posts	0 Ocelot Spleens Go me! After the second set of clues, Prescott punching someone made an indelible mark on my mind, i.e. why shouldn't he, the guy was a twat. Quite pleased with the 19th century attempt too....It was Grace, I think we basically played Aus every couple of years...but I couldn't remeber if it was odd or even years....still a guess though.
jennyh Jan 2021 11:44am, 15 Jan 2021 5,393 posts	0 jennyh Another correct guess from Macca for year 2, and another close guess for year 1 (like OS, he’s one year out, both guessing either side of the correct year). Final set coming up.

jennyh Jan 2021 11:51am, 15 Jan 2021 5,395 posts	0 jennyh You did well macca, you were right on year 2 and one year out on year 1
jennyh Jan 2021 12:04pm, 15 Jan 2021 5,397 posts	0 jennyh I don’t think we’re going to have any more guesses, so I’ll reveal the answers: Year 1 was 1890 and year 2 was 2001. Nico, Oscar, OS, macca and Night Owl all for year 2 correct, we had some close guess on year 1, but no correct ones.

Simple rules:
3 sets of questions over about 45 minutes. F-mail me your answer. One guess only - if you get it right after the first set give yourself 4 points, 3 points after the second set, 2 points after the third, you get the idea? If you turn up but still get it wrong you get a point for being a good egg.
