Should we be concerned with the woman question?

G: Sky not showing the penalty shoot out of last weekend's womens FA Cup Final?



Just because you're paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

For the sake of this quiz, no need to be concerned about women. Outside this quiz, why not Wink?

Is this a tangible thing we seek or is it mythical, like Portugal's Mediterranean coast

It's not tangible.

And it hasn't anything to do with any Mediterranean coast, perceived or real.

I've already used that for a quiz, possibly a 20/20q. But I'm considering variations on this theme Cool.

When I was a kid, I was told about the 1948 Olympics by the old fogies. Now I've turned into one of the old fogies telling the kids about 1992. No one will probably ever tell anyone about 2012 Crazy.

First time I've come across the word "officialdom" so I'm not completely certain about the answer. If it's in the meaning of something relating to bureaucratic procedures, yes, that's part of this e/o, I'd say.

GOAL!!

It's the founding of BVB 09 at the pub Zum Wildschütz in 1909. Founded in protest against Father Hubert Dewald trying to curtail the playing of football in the Trinity Youth Club and the use of Zum Wildschütz for gatherings, a number of members held a meeting at Zum Wildschütz. When Father Dewald was told about the meeting he tried to gain entry to Zum Wildschütz to break up the meeting but was physically restrained from doing so. The name of the club "Borussia" is believed to come from the Borussia brewery whose beers were sold at Zum Wildschütz.

The story is chronicled in some detail at Borussia's German wiki page: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borussia_Dortmund

Well done Paddy and over to you.
