I'm sure this was answered last night - or where my eyes playing tricks on me. Much like the Nessie sightings :)

No not answered yet. There are two names for the said lake monster. Either name will do.

Will leave it running a bit longer and then reveal if no correct answer.

I posted an answer to this last night, which isn't there now... the Canadian Nessie is called Ogopogo I believe...

Correct Jon Ogopogo is the name i was looking for. The other name used less often is Naitaka meaning lake demon.

Over to you Jon.

OK - let's go with something a bit different.

Today is the 1st October. What significant car related event happened on this day in history?

Bonus points for the year...

331 BC – Alexander the Great defeats Darius III in the Battle of Gaugamela.
My favourite event from history.
Darius used lots of cars/ chariots
