You might be on to something there but was there not someone before Jenner ?

drewf · May 29, 2015

Close...

A man named Jesty performed the first vaccination using pus from cows with cowpox on his family. Vaccination comes from the Latin root for cow... Jenner who is generally thought to have invented it did it 20 years later near Pirton Down. People have been doing odd things there for years....

Inoculation is subtly different to vaccination btw.

Your turn!

I've got too much cr4p in my head. I've asked a few questions recently so I'll let someone else have a go. I'm declaring an open house.

Clue: it was another 20 years before someone famously tried it with a boy.

Was Jimmy Saville that old ?

that wasn't the question.

I will start you all off with an easy one today. Everybody is too polite to set the next question.

How did the lead singer of Guns 'n' Roses get his stage name ?

StuartW · May 30, 2015

... and the answer to that is not polite!

Nothing Compares 2 U was a huge hit record for Sinead O'Connor and was written by Prince. He did not record it however, he originally wrote it for one of the acts he mentored, which one was it?

Sheena Easton?

I think I know this too.

But as for the previous question all I'm getting is Sax Role , was he a saxophonist too...

It's not, her Prince written hit was Sugar Walls

The anagram is Oral Sex Martin although he may play the saxophone too?!

midlifecrisis · May 30, 2015

I'd thought Sheena E too...

And as for Lex Soar? Really! So the lead singer of a tribute band could be Alex San?

StuartW · May 30, 2015

OK, so it was a group rather than a solo artist if that helps - any Prince aficionados out there?

daverichardson · May 30, 2015

not me

midlifecrisis · May 30, 2015

The revolution? That was o.e if his bands...

It's been a day so here's the answer, the group was called The Family. I guess there are not too many fans of Prince here.

Never heard of them, I guess that means you need to try again with a question that we might know the answer to
