ROB'S QUIZ VII - RESULTS

Results are up.

As always, some great answers from all concerned.

There were three questions that went unanswered; no-one knew that the Spanish sport involving knocking down a wooden marro is called 'Calva', that the world's third most popular social networking website is called 'Hi5', or that the hat traditionally worn by Nigerian men is called a 'Kufi'. There were, however, a number of 'solos':
