Did you pass?
sigh...the only one I knew was the cat gut one...
6/10....a pass!
A sorry failure.
I knew the black box was yellow ... oh.
This is so great! I failed completely (except for the kiwifruit)
Am feeling thick - I came by to condescendingly inform you that black boxes are flourescent orange (helps recovery bods find them on sea bed - don't think too long on that), before realising that all the answers were oxymoronic! Didn't realise kiwi fruit were also known as Chinese gooseberries - here they're called natschis.
4 and a half out of 10 couldn't remeber is the october revolution was in November or september but knew it was one of the two.
