Which is the only street in Britain where cars are required to drive on the right?
|
|

Savoy Street in front of the hotel.

Savoy Court - the only street in the UK where vehicles are required to drive on the right. Apparently, this is a hangover from the original horse-drawn hackney carriages, where drivers would reach out of the driver's door window to open the passenger's door, without having to get out of their seat |

I think it can be "bookkeeper"

By:
Oddly I'd remembered it as bookmaker, and I thought...that's not right!

By:
Both accountants of sorts!

Re the earlier question I street-viewed...sorry I used street-view to have a look at Savoy Street earlier, thinking I might nick a pick for a visual question. The vehicles are disappointingly mostly on the left. There's some great other images though...a man cut in half and a workman inexplicably removing his trousers! Oh, and a couple of women wearing identical outfits.

starfish and coffee, there's a resident crew of quizzers on Chit Chat who know there is just no point at all in Googling for answers. Defeats the whole point of testing your memory/knowledge.
Sometimes, it takes a while for the whole right answer to come to mind, even if you've got a bit of it - that's when we put the names up we're trying to remember (well, I do, as it sometimes takes half a day or so for it to come to mind - but I'm delighted when it finally does!) |

Sorry, no idea at all, Nick.

In the spirit of that Tommy, I asked if I could google the answer to my own question, so I could reply to you, having kindly paid me the honour of responding to it :-)

Why, of course you can, S&C!

Thanks...and you were right..haha

By:
Hahaha!

As it was a 50-50 chance, I'm happy with that!

I remember Paul Lim's nine-darter quite well. The chap he was playing was an older guy wearing a dark green top, sort of like the Irish footballing colours. I'm guessing he might have been from Ireland himself.
There's a chance I'm getting mixed up with John Lowe's opponent when he made the first televised nine-darter. |
|
By:
The guy had silver hair.
|
|
By:
I feel like I know his name, but it just won't come to me. I think it is an Irish sounding name.
