    Ayres Rock (Uluru) in Australia is the largest body of rock above ground in the world. Who discovered it?

    Question #35709. Asked by WFRS.

    TabbyTom

    Ernest Giles in 1872 (though I dare say that it was already known to some of the aboriginals)

    This book by Mary Stewart features another of her resourceful heroines. If you have read the book, the questions should be relatively easy. If you haven't, I recommend that you do so first, as otherwise the quiz will spoil your enjoyment.

    2 Rock & Roll Body Parts
    All these familiar rock and roll songs have a body part in the title. Songs are mostly from the 1960s and 1970s but you might find a stray 1980s as well. Time to build a body. Good luck.
