In todays's Times they had a 20-question history test: the idea was that parents did it and compared their scores with that of their children.

We did it in the pub, I got 19/20; the best the 20-something barkeeps scored was 13/20. He is a History graduate too, FFS...

That's probably because you experienced much of it first hand.

You asked for that ;)
