Already tried that one!

OK!

That does it for me. This bear has to be up early to scratch its arse. Goood night

Pakistan has got to be Urdu or Gujarati because wasn't it part of India until 1947?

Yeah the language thing was a bit difficult - I did say you had to get all correct though and nobody did at one attempt.

the answers were Pakistan= Urdu, Eire= Gaelic and Britain =None.

I was a bit dubious about it cos when it was given to me the 'Language Professor' who supplied it was actually wrong! at the time Ireland had not adopted or defined Gaelic and I read in the news when they did about 9 months later!

On Q42, as with Q43, the little problem was that I didn't actually know the answers! I was relying on remembering them if they appeared and Aaron was certainly right with the Cluedo answer. For fun only, if anyone knows the other I'd love to be reminded.

Thanks again.

I will try and finalise the scoring but I have finished the first prize and several of her sisters so a bit difficult. :D

Wrong.

I refer you to the Pakistani Government's own website:

"Languages: Urdu (National) and English (Official)"

http://www.pak.gov.pk/BasicFacts.aspx

So I suppose one could argue that both are acceptable. But you did say official...

I don't think Eire exists any more, but for the Republic of Ireland I'll try Gaelic.

For Britain I'll try English.

For Pakistan I'll try Urdu.

EDIT Oh, the answers have come while I was posting. Never mind.
