Post subject: Who am I? A new game
i feel like having a bit of fun so lets play "Who am I?" I have a famous person in mind, and I will post clues regularly about this person. I will send the first person to guess correctly a bottle of Il Saporito Italian wine (the winner can chose between the Chardonnay or the Merlot).

So here we go:

Clue 1: She was the 15th child of 16 children.

Just to clarify, the winner needs to be in Shanghai, so that I can send them the wine!

Can we ask yes/no questions? I love this game - play it all the time on long journeys and the like.

I'll assume the answer's yes so .....

Is she alive?

carolw - you are unbelievable! I had 15 clues all cleverly prepared. Either you are a massive history buff, or you can do google searches with surprising efficiency! Sigh. PM me with your details and tell me if you want the merlot or the chardonnay and i will arrange to send you the wine.

I think that you should pick a mystery person for us to guess now!

I've got to admit, it was efficient googling! Sorry!

I need some thinking time to come up with a mystery person though.

I am keen to play another round, but I think my days as quiz master are over, at least for the time being!

Right I've picked up the gauntlet thrown down by Lafite. So here goes.

My career has been as a British Politician, who am I?

I am going to shy away from the more obvious answer and say someone who began his career as a british politician: Jeffrey Archer ?
