Following on from a conversation we had here in the CW office. If you had to choose one subject to answer questions on (ie. your 'Mastermind' specialist subject) what would it be?

| I'll get the ball rolling, after much head-scratching I decided on 'The Download Festival 2003-2011', think i'd be pretty solid on that. |

| I saw someone did Iron Maiden on Mastermind a couple of years ago, and I got more right that she did, so I reckon I would be on solid ground on that topic. |

I guess it'd have to be comic books? It's something I've been into since i was young, have gathered quite a lot of info, i'd like to think  If not that, it'd probably be a specific video game.

I'd go with the Anglo-Boer War 1899-1902 - fascinating subject and I've travelled to all the major battle sites in South Africa. I still get a lump in the throat when I think of the 300 meter long mass grave on Spionkop.

Simply Cricket for me! It's the only thing I know inside out! ------------- In troubled times, being philosophical helps a great deal, it helps you to remain sane and not do any further damage. |

| Should have been more precise - Islamic history is my area of specialization. Though I do have a grip on the world history too as I am pursuing my doctorate in the subject |
