Who wrote Only Fools and Horses? What is Rodney Trotter's middle
name? What is the name of the actor who played Uncle Albert? When
the first episode of Only Fools and Horses hit our screens in
September 1981, the show became an instant classic. Over the years
it has gone from strength to strength and is now widely regarded as
one of the greatest British comedies of all time. Whether you are
looking to spice up your pub quiz or really test your in-depth
knowledge of the Trotters, The Only Fools and Horses Quiz Book is a
welcome, quirky addition to the bookshelf of any fan that will keep
you quizzing - and laughing - for hours on end.
More Answers Than Questions is a quiz book with a difference. Each
quiz is composed of eleven questions. Question 1 requires a single
answer, question 2, two answers, question 3, three answers and so
on, up to question ten. Then there is a bonus question, the answer
to which comprises anything between ten and fifty answers. These
are quizzes that all the family can work together to solve, rather
than trying to out-do each other by being the first to shout out a
single correct answer to each question. Subjects covered include:
The Arts, Cinema, Food and Drink, General Knowledge, Geography,
History, Literature, Music, The Natural World, Science, and much
more besides. With each quiz truly testing the depth and width of
your knowledge, More Answers Than Questions will provide many hours
of family fun - and perhaps some bouts of frustration!

Can you tell the Trumpisms from the hot air?!?! The big bad media
just keeps on spreading tall tales, but at long last here is a book
that can help you hone your skills of fishing the truth from the
lies! On each page of this book, you'll find two statements on the
same subject matter. One is from the real Trump (i.e. a definitive
quote from DJT about happenings in the USA, the rest of the world,
people and general wisdom). The other is your average trump
(something we made up, fake news, hot air, smoke in the wind, a big
fat fart). For example* . . . A) TRUMP: Climate change has happened
since dinosaur times, it's happened since cave men walked the
earth. And they didn't have cars in the Ice Age. or B) TRUMP: It's
really cold outside, they are calling it a major freeze, weeks
ahead of normal. Man, we could use a big fat dose of global
warming! The perfect stocking filler for quiz-hungry politicos this
Christmas, TRUMP V TRUMP will keep you entertained for hours. -----
* The Answer is B! Donald tweeted this back on 19 October 2015 -
because who isn't wistful for climate change?
