    Well I'm basically copying Marks's idea in the history forum here but what the hey !

    Ok, How it works is you answer the last question given then you get to ask the next question. Nothing impossible and no flaming, spamming or general arsin aboot are i shall send Detritus over to your house. (nice chap, gets things done)

    Ok so, i'll start with an easyish question to get the ball Rollying.

    Q. What was Captain Carrots of the City Watch's second name?


    G,Luck! :p
