Kent v Lancashire Quiz
The aim here is to relate the statements below as they apply to Kent and/or Lancashire. Each statement only applies to one or other of the counties. Even if you don’t know you can have your best guess. Without using reference material or the internet, of course.
REMEMBER - NO POSTS instead you PM me with your guesses any time up to 8pm tonight. If possible, please wait until you've completed all the guesses you want to make to avoid too many PMs and to make my job easier. So no hurry and it doesn't matter when you submit the answers because I'll be judging them solely on who has the most correct - and in the event of two or more being level it will be a tie. I hope this is clear and good luck. Tomorrow I’ll post the names of the top entries.
