What is your track record ?

You are 25/1 pending disclosure.
I have never given a wrong answer.

My head started to throb when I read that. (bangshead)

It is not the old school tie you need to worry about. What you need is to know who is in the NC [tap]
N.C.?.. What's that?... Crikey,it's only October and I'm stumped already. No clue? Not connected? No change? I give in.:$

Nouvelle clique (as opposed to the now disbanded Original clique; You're too 'young' to remember these exeweb glory days). Basically they have a stranglehold on the EAC. #dodgyhandshakebrigade

I say it every year, the shortness of my odds are a complete surprise - in the entire history of the ACQ I have never got a single question right, yet every year the odds suggest I'm in with a shout of a European place.

Farce.
More than one possibility here, Fred. The bookie may think:

a) That you're a dark horse and sure to come good eventually.

b) That you're a complete no-hoper. He believes a few mug punters may be conned into parting with their hard-earned.

Spoonz, Elgy, Oman, Lionel, Stroudy are the last 5 winners IIRC. Do you know which of these are NC ?

Tres excited.

I predict I'll have a slow start to the quiz as the internet in Diego Garcia is the worst. I'll be back in the UK in mid-Dec, so expecting a strong finish *thumbs up emoji*

Isca was the dark horse last year and the year before that :)

Updated as the history is pieced together. So how many NC ?

Stalwart ? Seasoned ? Thrusting young buck ?
I will settle for either of the first two - cannot remember the last time I Thrusted or Bucked but that's another story
