Welcome to the THURSDAY QUIZ for 30 May 2019.

As promised, there are three questions:

Q2 Which highwayman rode a horse from outside London to York to escape?

Q3 What did pirates do to the sailors on board the ships they took over?

The THURSDAY QUIZ is open to everyone.

The rules:

No googling, wiki, social media, website searches for the answers.

Please answer all three questions in the same post as - Q1 = [answer]; Q2 = [answer]; Q3 = [answer].

If you do not know the answer to any question, please say Q? = [don`t know].

You may submit a second set of answers, but only after another member has posted their first answers.

You may submit the same answer or answers as another player, but most state, "I agree with xxxx, and my answer to Q... is..."

The Thursday Quiz will open at 9pm tonight [Wed 29 May] when you may submit your first set of answers and this Thursday Quiz will remain open until 12 noon Friday 31 May.

Answers will be given after 1pm on Friday 31 May.

Q1. Agree with @Cleoriff

Q2. Agree with @Cleoriff

Q3. Agree with @Cleoriff, except I would add they also often sold the crew as slaves.

Now off to listen to some Beatles music. So I'll say good night all, as I doubt I'll be returning to the forum tonight - I've got a lot of Beatle tracks to listen to.

In case, you weren`t joking:

Q1 Who was the outlaw who robbed the rich and gave to the poor?

Q2 Which highwayman rode a horse from outside London to York to escape?

Q3 What did pirates do to the sailors on board the ships they took over?
