Wanted - Ten easy Manband related quiz questions

[Dan Singh]

Ho! True enough, Mr H. Shows you how much they know! Nevertheless....good point, could cause confusion and unrest, particularly amongst the more militant botanists. Could reword the question along the lines of 'name the song that could be found in a fruit and veg shop'...

Did we not also have a brazilian cucumber?

[Martin Daughton]

Here's a good one.

What does Baffo do?

[Jules]

Could reword the question along the lines of 'name the song that could be found in a fruit and veg shop'...

Great idea. Any others in a similar vein, like:

Which song could be found in a Chemist's shop?

[Jules]

Did we not also have a brazilian cucumber?

We certainly did, so a related question might be "Who might be sniffing the produce of a Greengrocer's?"

[Nick Nation]

Which song could be found in a Chemist's shop?

(Twitch, Fumble, Feeling of Restlessness....) There could be two (arguably three) answers to this, depending on the chemist....

More....How about:

Why is 'A Sad Song' listed under G?

How come the link to George's site is still out of date?

What did Tweke hear for the first time the other day?

[Stephen Barstow]

I'm stuck on four, Nick. After all, they did use to introduce it as 'The Vegetable Song'...

Banana is the common name for various herbaceous plants of the genus Musa. My belief is that they are vegetables, even though conventional botanists will try to tell you that the yellow Cavendish banana is strictly a fruit. Anyway, bananas will outlive the Cavendish which is currently as you know self-destructing.  However, the Cavendish is a tiny part of existing banana germplasm. The much more diverse plantain and even banana hearts are both vegetables used as staples by large numbers of people in tropical countries....

Go for it, Saint!

Right, I'm on a roll. In more ways than one. How about:

How many times has Deke taken the easy way out?

My favourite so far is definitely "Who shot Micky?"

The evidence is not conclusive...we see a man with a gun, not a man shooting...picky pick pick...

Who was it going on about Blue/black potatoes the other day? I thought StEvil, but can't see the message.
I had some the other day, peculiar things. Not like your purple carrots, or purple podded peas that go to a "normal" colour when cooked (orange and green). These tates stay a bluey-purpley-black colour, all the way through, and retain the colour on the plate. Taste like potatoes, but don't look like them.. Came from Norway, where they're suposed to grow best in the long cool summer days..

in high school i used to get a ride early in the morning with my dad before he went to work.there was this other strange artistic kid who used to get there early too.well one time he brought some banana peels to school.we went out to the woods and well we "smoked up".but the results were nebulous at best.maybe there is a certain way to prepare them that im not aware of.i can't remember all the details.i think he tried to dry them out first or something.that kid was a strange bird and yes it takes one to know one (although i think he eclipsed me in that department) but he could really draw,very artistic ...

That's easy, Martin: The one shooting Micky yelled "FREEEEZE!!!" some ten minutes before. Malcolm surely didn't want to get shot.
