My answers are…
1. Definitely “s-cone” not “s-kon”
2. Marmite is foul 🙂
3. Supposed to start at Watford gap, its more like the midlands really
4. Evening meal at home is tea, evening meal out is dinner
5. Coffee is good, but prefer tea, and without milk. If you add milk it has to go in last

ROUND 1:
Does scone rhyme with BONE or GONE? – Bone. In Scotland, Scone Palace is where the Kings of Scotland were crowned; Scone is pronounced Scewon up there!
What goes onto a scone first: jam or cream? – Cream of course.
ROUND 2:
Marmite: do you love it or hate it? – Love it; goes great with peanut butter!
ROUND 3:
Where is the north/south divide? – Milton Keynes.
ROUND 4:
What do you call your evening meal – tea, supper, dinner? – Tea.
ROUND 5:
Tea or coffee? –
Do you put the milk in your tea first or last? – Last – putting it in first means you’re guessing the amount of milk, and it’s considered to be a bit common! In ancient times, only rich people could afford china cups, and pouring hot tea into the cup first didn’t crack expensive china cups, unlike the cheap clay ones!
