Okay then, I'll accpet Corinthians. Sorry, I thought you were thinking of the Southern league amateur side who won lots of FA cups in the 1890s.

I was thinking of Queen of the South, but thats bye the bye.

How embarassing. Top of a new page, and I can't even spell accept correctly.

Anyway, over to you Egon.

And you're ignorant of south american football

OK, topical and sporty (sorry):

Annika Sorenstam has just become the first woman to play on the Men's PGA golf tour for god knows how many years. What was her score over two rounds (par 140)

+6?

no

2 over par,I think,but with not being a golf fan,I'm probably wrong.

Name a song with the word fifteen in it.

Twenty Green Bottles (gets to fifteen eventually, but seriously cheating)


Or, in the world of musical theatre, there's a song called 'I Am Only Fifteen' from Yours, Anne (based on the life of Anne Frank).

I'm guessing neither are the answer you're looking for, though...

Fifteen Years by The Levellers from the Levelling the Land album

Perce, I was in Morrisey mode so I was thinking 'Fifteen minutes with you ,well I wouldn't say no....'

I've got a question:

Which Olivier Award-winning musical features a song where an amphibian sings to a bird, and another where a male bird sings about the joy of being a mother?

Dr Doolittle?

No, afraid not. I didn't get to see the stage version of Doctor Dolittle - was it any good?

I've just realised that I should mention for people outside the UK that the Oliver Awards are the equivalent of the Tonys on Broadway - awards for theatrical events in London.

Lion King

Lady L,

Its not just me that goes into Morrisey mode then! Everyone else here just thinks its cos I'm a miserable sod. Can't believe I didn't think of that one (though the Levs can be pretty dismal as well at times)

Perce

Not Lion King, either, no amphibians in that as far as I know.

Rather more obscure than Lion King (but much better, IMO).

It's a bit of a mean question - I think I went into librarian information-searching-skills mode. It is possible to track down the info on the web, and I'll help narrow things down a little by saying it won for Best New Musical rather than any of the other similar categories.

David

damn I don't have hours to get this one I only logged in for a few secs. Guess I'll have to be first to answer the next question. Love to everybody and see you after the dreaded house move!!!!
