The post Silver general knowledge quiz No.2 appeared first on Silver Magazine.

The idea is to try and do one each Friday, but don’t hold us to it. Here’s the second one. You can get your sticky paws on the answers by clicking the link at the bottom. There’s a drinks quiz theme this week. Seeing as it’s Friday night and all that.

All the answers in this round feature a drink or cocktail in the title. Good luck!

1. Who were Wham’s female backing singers, who went on to have a solo career?
2. What line follows ’15 men on a dead man’s chest’?

14. Phillips, London, and ratchet are all types of what?
15. If you see FCUK on a t-shirt, what does the FC stand for?
