    Default Caithness place quiz

    I set questions for a quiz at a pub a few years back but I have lost the answers. Can anyone help me out please?

    The Caithness place quiz. Who can get them all?

    1. The original sterilising fluid
    2. Fish need them.
    3. A cardinal is into a snog
    4. Sounds like it is upright and motionless.
    5. Wrecks if sliced and diced
    6. Aged in olden speak, we hear?
    7. The place with a large defensive structure?
    8. Part of a candle
    9. Near Loth? About 37 miles!
    10. An area to see where the sun sets?
    11. Clarets mixed there.
    12. Topsy turvy newt at water
    13. Haters mix on the Thurso to Wick road
    14. Bad terms thru this place
    15. This town can hurt so badly
    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    Courage to change the things I can,
    And wisdom to know the difference.

    A 1991 Gallup survey indicated that 49 percent of Americans didn't know that white bread is made from wheat.
