Yes (8/30)

I'm beginning to wonder when someone's going to stop wasting questions trying to pin the exact year down ...

Well, the previous one (which I set) seems to have worked quite successfully that way - get the date first and work out the event from it. Do you have a better idea?

EDIT: That wasn't one of the questions either!

Hang on... I may have just gone horribly wrong somewhere. The answer to question 7 was "no" and George V died on 20 January 1936. Which means that questions 10, 11 and 12 are superfluous. Oh bugger.

Easy to do! I did in the previous thread. Though I'll let you go beyond 30 if necessary! :D
