The Daily Teaser …

Yoicks.

I’ve got to admit, I’ve actually finally had an answer from Susan Carragher about the library computers at Brentwood and Shenfield.

And as soon as I get the chance, I think I’ll be putting up a post or two more about that.

Once I’ve done a little research, to make sure of my facts, figures, terminology …

And stuff.

Bit of an education, this, isn’t it, Adrian … ?

Let’s move on, shall we?

Yesterday’s Teaser saw Trevor getting 5 out of 5, and — as it quiet — officially beating everyone to the Official First-In-Clap.

Let’s see how you, and he, do with today’s questions, shall we? Here they are, along with the ‘How To’ and License …

Q1) 21st April, 753BC — or 21st April, 754BC, depending on who you ask — is the traditional date for the foundation of which city?

Q2) More to the point, by which rather wild twins?

Q3) Who — or what, I should say — was the adoptive mother of those twins?

Q4) Moving on, 21st April, 1509, saw who ascent the throne of England?

Q5) 21st April is Grounation Day: this commemorates whose visit to a very specific Caribbean island?

Q6) More to the point, which island are we talking about?

Q7) And finally … which religion celebrates Grounation Day?

Here’s yesterday’s questions and answers …
