Festive Season Quiz Question
I was sent this, so hope I have it right!
And if anyone does bother to answer, they must do so without googling  Question: Which firm made the most rubber tyres in 2013? I'll post the answer that I have in a day or so, to give you all thinking time. Then you can google to your hearts' content to prove me wrong

With 380 million tyres? I heard it on the radio recently. Bridgestone second.

I'm assuming the key is that most car tyres are not, I believe, made from rubber any more?

I guess it was a bit easy - if you'd heard it before!
Yep: Lego, with Bridgestone runners up. I loved some of the answers, though. I thought it might be an excuse for you to demonstrate your wit. No prizes, I'm afraid, except to wish you all a Happy New Year. |

But the question was set in the "festive season". I think I put it the wrong way round in the title! Blame the brain (or lack of).

This is the trouble with off season. We're all feeling deflated.
