I got only 9 right. Completely guessing. I think there were two that I knew. Didn’t have a chance.

I got 19 of the 24 questions without trying. Then again I am spending the weekends in "London" at the Great Dickens Fair outside San Francisco. Leading tours and feeding people a light fluffy version of British History.

Nicer that I live in the 21st century and can visit fantasy 19th century on the weekends for a few hours, and still have indoor plumbing and not need bed curtains. Or have to deal with bad food.

I do however suspect there were Christians in the 2nd century AD. And if one believes the Joseph of Arememathea legends they would have to have been there in the first century. After all tin traders took Christ to southern England after the flight to Egypt. 😉 right?
Exactly. And apparently, looking after the environment is a fundamental principle of British life, and driving a car is not. Really? Sounds like the people running British immigration spend too long watching (or, possibly living in) Downton Abbey...

Dammit! I answered the one about the music festival too quickly, and didn’t see “classical” so I stuffed it up...



Would have passed otherwise...

Those were some pretty diverse questions. I took two of the tests and got 18 each time.

21/24 in 4 minutes. Put it down to being old and still having a memory. But there is no way I want to leave Australia to live in the UK.

Those Fosters cans are tiny.
No one here in Oz actually drinks Fosters….we keep the good stuff for ourselves and export the shit…..having said that we can’t find any takers for XXXX beer, so we make the Queenslanders drink it!
It’s called XXXX because Queenslanders can’t spell beer!

As a Aussie, who the 🤬 would want to live there.




Warm beer and poms 🤔
God, I wish everyone thought the same, then we wouldn't have such a problem with boats arriving on a daily basis.
Besides we have far to many aussies here already

I disagree. I say thank goodness there is always steady stream of aussies visiting our fine shores. If they didn't, who'd be pulling our pints?

And they do have the side effect of making the rest of us appear intelligent and cultured. Every cloud...I guess

21 out of 24, enjoyed that this morning 😀, although I'm not British and do not live in the UK, I worked there all my working life so i suppose it would have been poor form if I didn't pass.

22/24. Apologies to the Welsh for getting their question wrong 🙄
Agree with @hen that there are far more important ‘British’ things that should be in the quiz, like warm beer & prawn cocktail crisps.
