Q9. Which English potter was the maternal grandfather of the 19th century naturalist Charles Darwin?

Re: St. Patrick's Day Quiz March 17th


Yes, it was Josiah Wedgwood. Not sure why I was surprised, but I was. It's like when you first find out that all the actors/actresses and film directors and all inter-related! Bit like royalty, really.

Last Q ...........

Q10. What name is given to Italy’s national liquor, produced with varying degrees of refinement by boiling grape skins which have already been pressed to make wine, and capturing the distillation?
