I think you'd like me to jump in and say the hundred years war lastest 100 years, etc. but I have been fooled by this before. I have an Auntie Eileen, we nick name her Crazy Auntie Eileen because she always comes up with crazy games, on one of her less crazy days she gave us this quiz - the worst thing is I can't remember the answers so I will answer what I can and guess what I can't - Fair Enough?

1. 25yrs (guess)
2.China (guess
3. Fish (guess)
4. March (guess)
5. the same stuff as our hair brush (guess)
6. I wouldn't have a clue - I failed Geography!!!
7. Henry (guess)
8. Blue (this is the only one I am sure on)
9. France (guess)
10. Blue or red

I think we can learn from this that my Crazy Auntie Eileen taught me nothing!!!
