Good for Birmingham; Bad for Cheltenham

Following the Kraft Foods takeover of Cadbury's, the first casualties are revealed...and it is good news for Bournville! Kraft have announced that they are to close their headquarters in Cheltenham and move them to Birmingham. So, that's about 500 jobs that will be lost in Cheltenham, but it will secure (and maybe add) jobs here in Birmingham. Unfortunately, that's the way of business, but some measure of relief for my neighbourhood!

Your Wednesday questions are:-
  1. Who is the father of Emilio Estevez who was born today in 1962?

  2. What was the nickname of Florence Nightingale (right) who was born today in 1820?

  3. Who was crowned King at Westminster Abbey today in 1937?
Yesterday's Answers: 1. "Neighbours"; 2. The Animals; 3. John Parrott

My book "The Easy Quiz Master"
