Sorry if you think the quiz is too long, the title does say Pub Type Quiz and all the quizzes I do are 6 rounds.
I really didn't expect it to be answered in bits & bobs, but thought that people might post their scores on Friday so that they could have see how they did against everyone else.
If you would rather have just one round, be it questions, anagrams, cryptic, blockbusters, family fortunes let me know.

I prefer shorter then you haven't got to scroll pages and pages to see what's been answered plusplus only 2 answers to give others a chance. Then give another 2 answers an hour later something like that, what do u think

If you would like sport round, no problem, however do you mean football or general sport?
I don't tend to do sport rounds that are along the lines of who scored the winning goal in the 1928 FA Cup Final or which horse won which race.
They tend to be as follows:
Sport:
1. What title is won by the rider who wins the Polka dot jersey in the Tour de France?
2. Wimbledon is home to which 2 sports?
3. Which country did Merlene Ottey represent at international athletics 2002/12?
4. Which sport did Alan Shephard demonstrate on the moon to show the lower gravity?
5. In which sport would you use a Shinai sword?
6. Which sport was originally developed to keep Australian cricketers fit during the winter?
7. Which sport uses a net 6 inches high?
8. How many players form a scrum in Rugby Union?
9. How many yards or metres is the penalty spot from the goal in football?
10. How many runs would you have scored if the Umpire raises both arms above his head?
If you like it great, if not apologies in advance
Answers Saturday

When posting a whole quiz, my reasoning was that people could write their answers down and then mark them without other people's answers getting in the way.
Obviously doesn't suit everybody, but I don't have the time to reply every hour or so to peoples answers. Sorry.
