So basically you have just copied Andi's answer above?

Not really, because here is a picture of the same menu taken on my camera.

Were these pictures taken in a museum recently then?

They were taken on the 1938 stock tour of the East London Line.

What I want to know is why they can't give an exact price for the cheese toastie, but they do for everything else. Was the global cheese trading market extremely volatile in the early 80s or something?

It could be that they offered a number of different toasted sandwiches, so the price could vary depending on filling!

i have like the same picture on my phone from that day

So if you have the answer in front of you, why enter? Seems a bit pointless as you know the answers, whereas people like Andi etc who don't know the answers can play along with the game!

thanks steveooo i got to admit i never know the answers even in the picture quizess.This was a total guess im glad it was right even though it seems my own treasure hunt idea is too hard?

But isn’t that the hole point of a quiz, if you know the answer to a question you don't turn round and say 'its ok guys I won't enter this question as I know the answer to it'.

The same could be said about the Photo Quizzes, I know for a fact that Ping Pon will search through Google or some thing like that until he finds out what the station is.

Anyway this is now a pointless conversation as Mr Finland has already won the quiz.

Surely it is more fair if you have the answer in front of you then you shouldn't enter out of the whole spirit of things!
Just like I think that you and Ping Pon probably shouldn't enter the photo quizzes because most of the time you guys are in the photos so *should* in theory always get the correct answer, but hey ho, just my opinion!

Just to say i dont just look them up i have on about 4 when i wasnt quite sure and i just double checked my answers. i am sure others do and im sure others look at photos they have taken them selfs

I google my photo quiz answers - but I don't always get them right. I don't think it's that much of a problem.

I look for clues and then if I'm bored research it to confirm my answer for the photo quizzes. Given my current success rate though it's not really worth it!

Just to clarify, it's not the using the web to assist answers that is the contentious issue here, I have no objection whatsoever to that.
The point that I was raising is that Dr Who knew the exact answer, solely because he had the answer in front of him! Had he researched and somehow found the answer on the internet (very unlikely for this quiz!), then I'd have no objection, but the fact that he has a photographic solution, presumably taken at the same time as Soup Dragon's, it takes away the quiz element of it for me.

But the whole idea of a quiz is testing your resourcefulness as well as your knowledge - I bet you wouldn't complain if you entered a TV competition and won solely because you had a photo of the answer in front of you!!

Anyway - lighten up... it's all a bit of fun!
