Question of the day

[zagatoes30]

They all have dodgy barnets?

If you had met me you know I never take the p155 out of other peoples barnets.

As a clue the link I am looking for is topical at this time of year

Someone has dressed up as each of them at Halloween?

 

[MarkMas]

They all have the middle name Marion?

 

[zagatoes30]

Both incorrect

I'm beginning to worry about MarkMas

Are they members of an unlikely boy band - yes even Fräulein Merkel. Who could tell?

 

[spkennyuk]

Sorry forgot all about this?

Other than they are all political leaders (OK Nick Clegg was only a part time pretender) what links the following Vladimir Putin, Bashar al-Assad, Kim Jong-un, Angela Merkel, Muammar Gaddafi, David Cameron, and Nick Clegg?

All been on Donald Trumps friends list but since been removed or will be removed.

They have all, at one time or another, had a “Guy” effigy that looked like them placed on top of a bonfire and burnt?

I think you may be right!

That will do and as MarkMas finished at the Lewes Bonfire.

Over to you

It feels like MarkMas should get the honour, as my answer was purely a guess in response to the clue... Mark, do you have a question?

 

[MarkMas]

Thanks Jon.

How many ways can you be out in cricket? (And please list the ways)

 

[JonW]

Thanks Jon.

Nice question. I’ll do the easy ones...

Run out
Bowled
Caught
LBW
Stumped (different to run out?)

 

[Navcorr]

Hit wicket.
Hit ball twice.
"Deliberately" obstructing fielder.
Ball handling.

I know there are 10 ways of getting out. Can't think of the last one - how about retiring hurt? OK - that's not out but .....

 

[MarkMas]

.... there are 10 ways of getting out.

Nope.

 

[zagatoes30]

I thought there were 10 the missing one being Timed Out, when the Batsman takes too long to appear on the pitch

 

[Navcorr]

That's it - rings a bell now. I think, possibly, another might be falling asleep at the wicket whilst watching Boycott compile another century.
