Some of the ones we did earlier in lockdown were a memory quiz where you film a row of items and then ask questions about them. What was number 6 etc. WhatsApp it them delete for all after one minute. Don't tell them beforehand it's a memory quiz, just watch the video.

Three corrections if I may......

Lever Street cuts through Stephenson Square, Hilton St runs off it, not through it.
A bee isn't an animal
There are 4 rivers that flow through the city centre.... The 3 you mentioned and one other that flows completely underground from its source at Miles Platting until its confluence into the Medlock. Name that river!

200 years since it was visible. The Glauber Berti of Manchester waterways

River Tib

The River Tib has been hidden from view for almost two centuries, and yet is still remembered in place names such as Tib Street, Tib Lock, Tib Lane. It marked the boundary of the Roman settlement Mamucium and ultimately feeds the River Medlock.

Me and the kids were playing You Don’t Know Jack a few months ago and one of the ‘Dis or ‘Dat categories (for those of you who know the game) was ‘An English Soccer Team’ or ‘A Gay Club in Denver’. I can’t remember any of the gay club names, but the football teams were;

Man City
Crystal Palace
Stoke City
Crewe Alex
Queens Park Rangers

Not having the correction on Hilton Street. It runs through the square. Lever Street does cut through as you say but that wasn't the question!! :)

"Stephenson Square is one of Manchester' Squares. What street runs through it? Hilton Street"

That was the question and answer.
So which part of Lever St is incorrect as we both say it cuts through Stephenson Square?
Hilton Street follows on from Stephenson Square and does not cut across it. Google map it and you will see.
