    Question 7 is one of the few I knew the correct answer to. And to say, Les ... but I'm almost certain King George VI's first name was Albert! His elder brother, David - who abdicated in favour of marrying American divorcee, Wallis Simpson - had ascended the throne in 1936 as Edward VIII following the death of George V.

    Yes, it was ... I've just "broken the rules" ... in order to confirm it on the internet . Albert Frederick Arthur George Windsor ... known as "Bertie" in Royal circles.

    It's NOT a quiz as such but take a look at a thread I put on the forum - in the 'Language Translation' Section - yesterday forenoon.

    It's title is 'Awesome Anagrams' ... and Doc Alan has since added to it with a selection of his own humorous compilations.
