THE BIG QUESTION: Are you Magners or Guinness?
Forget Katie vs Peter, Israel vs Palestine and this blog vs Jamie Noon because there is a new war afoot: Magners League vs Guiness Premiership.
Warren Gatland has had his say, and he is a Magners man. The Chief Exec of the the Guiness Prem has, unsurprisingly, come out as a Guinness bloke. But which are you?
Can't decide? Take our quiz to tell you which side you should be on.
1. You and your partner have made arrangements and agreed to go out together four weekends on the trot. Then, said partner insists that you must go out on an addtional weekend when you were meant to be out with friends. Do you?
a) Tell them that this is completely out of order, unacceptable, and refuse to speak to them other than through a friend or Relate counsellor. Only to then sort it all out some weeks later on the promise that your partner will buy you something nice in return.
b) Don't go, but tell all your friends that you love going out with your partner and are absolutely committed to them and being allowed to spend time with them, but that it must be reasonable and planned. Appoint a posh friend who hammers out a deal whereby you only have to go out with your partner a certain number of days per year.
c) Shrug your shoulders, light a fag and a mutter something under your breath.
2. You have been asked to join a local quiz league, do you?
a) Decide that all the local teams are not producing the kind of quiz player that is needed for the County Inter-pub League and that in fact the county you are in is not enough for your ambition. Create a team called the Locality Braindragons that will compete against people from out of the area with a view to winning the World Quiz League by 2018. Your plans will then be rejected by the County Committee.
b) Find a local team, join it, lose heart as a team from the East Midlands keep winning most years.
c) Refuse, light a fag and gaze out over the sea.
3. Your boss wants a drink to talk about your future, do you?
a) Agree, but only if it is a full EGM with a quorum and that any motions are tabled in advance for each member to have a say.
b) Agree, but on the proviso that you can form a body to represent you at this meeting and that this body, and only this body can agree any decisions regarding your future.
c) Go to the meeting, both light a fag, both have a drink and don't actually get round to discussing your future.
How did you answer?
Mostly a) You are a Magners person through and through, keep fighting the fight
Mostly b) You are a Guinness Premiership soldier, be happy with that erroneous feeling that you are The Best League In The World™
Mostly c) You are French and none of this concerns you.
