Re: Trivia Chit Chat
Somewhere on Funtrivia is a question I sne to them, no idea what category or whether it will ever appear in a BE quiz. So to give you all a chance it was Where is the only other city that Harrods has opened a store. Answer was Buenos Aires, it was in the 19th century and was sold a few years later. It's never appeared in any of their quizes I have answered and I've answered hundreds, Funtrivia has a Global Challenge, and in the past I've reached the level of 'Immortal', which only gets awarded to someone finishing in the top 10 of the quiz which covers several weeks answering questions every day, and the categories get harder as you progress.
