A seriously unserious municipal challenge
Any time of yearRedQuadrant Christmas quiz
Test your local government geekiness.
Inspired by 17 glorious years of the RedQuadrant Xmas quiz and Jack Shaw’s excellent quiz.
Ten open-answer questions are drawn at random from 116 public-sector curiosities, council-call oddities and bits of glorious municipal arcana.
We mark generously: capitals, punctuation and small typos do not count. Some archive questions are deliberately historical, so dates in the wording matter.
