	These UK quizzes just show me how many names New England stole. "Sutton" added to the list.

	"Greenwich" as well.

	took me 4 minutes and 40 seconds. Not bad.

	There are quite a few other Suttons around the UK. It means "southern settlement".

	There are only 32 London boroughs plus the City of London, which is a local authority "sui generis".

	Surely needing to include the "Upon Thames" for Kingston and Richmond is a little unnecessary. I've spent a fair time in both boroughs, and they are never referred to as such in London.

	clearly the united states dominates this website, as no one gets these right

	Not even going through the monopoly properties or the London-based football teams helped much!

	i live in london (bexley) and i only got 11/33!!!

	fatcat2:	Aug 4th, 2009 at 20:53 GMT		2 points
	Myself a London dweller, and only 7/33. But then, I forgot that Wimbledon (yay!) Raynes Park and Putney are all part of Merton.

	Boomhauer:	Aug 11th, 2009 at 22:50 GMT		1 point
	Leeds and got 21

	15/33 not too bad, would have been 17 if it weren't for the "upon thames" bit in richmond and kingston

	DrRichie:	Sep 22nd, 2009 at 12:27 GMT		5 points
	shouldn't need the upon Thames bit. I thought I'd done all the Fulham Chelsea and Hammersmith combinations possible ho hum.

	kazasik12:	Sep 23rd, 2009 at 19:56 GMT		-1 points
	33/33 pretty good considering im a brummie:P

	tedmaul:	Sep 24th, 2009 at 21:10 GMT		8 points
	putney isn't in merton, its in wandsworth

	soupcon:	Nov 19th, 2009 at 21:05 GMT		7 points
	Pah. I put in Richmond, Dagenham, Barking, Fulham and Hammersmith and got nothing for them. That's a bit tight - especially for Richmond. Nevertheless I'm pretty happy with 16/33.

	ShadowKing:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 15:29 GMT		9 points
	This should accept 'Kingston' rather than requiring the whole 'Kingston on Thames'.

	QXYZ:	Dec 27th, 2009 at 21:16 GMT		1 point
	I put in "City" for city of London which is why I got 0 right.

	@fatcat2 putney is in wandsworth. My results show how little I know of the city I live in, only got 14, north london is another world to me.

	thecheshirecat:	Sep 15th, 2010 at 09:30 GMT		6 points
	Surprised no-one else has said 'Way too much time'.

	DunKhan:	Aug 1st, 2011 at 18:39 GMT		8 points
	A bit too stringent on the names, a bit too generous with the time.

	Season:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 17:08 GMT		-1 points
	All 33 in 4 minutes and 44 seconds. Not bad to say I come from Nottingham.

	suarez:	Jan 25th, 2012 at 00:45 GMT		4 points
	I sat here typing Fulham, Chelsea, Tottenham, West Ham, Arsenal, QPR, Millwall, etc until I realized it was Boroughs not teams 8\|

	Thryduulf:	Apr 2nd, 2012 at 20:33 GMT		-1 points
	29 from a Newham resident who has just contributed a quiz based on which borough stations are in. Bromley, Haringey and Wandsworth I can almost forgive myself for but I really shouldn't have missed Lewisham. :/

	giraburn:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 23:03 GMT		8 points
	Essex and I got 2. Not helping the stereotype really.

	27/33 for me. I live in Havering so naturally I blitzed east and central London and then started to struggle with some of the others. The problem is a lot of these boroughs were only created in the 1960's and given names that make little sense to the area - Havering being a case in point which should really be known as Romford as Havering-atte-bower is a small village on the periphery of London surrounded by countryside.

	should accept just 'westminster'

	tojwonkle:	Jun 5th, 2012 at 22:11 GMT		2 points
	I don't know london well at all, but I missed quite a few guesses just for not realising they were 'something and something' and not two individual boroughs, sneaky!

	@tojwonkle: 2008 called, they want your comment back.

	14lansdellt:	Aug 14th, 2012 at 12:23 GMT		1 point
	Only got, 21, which considering I live in west London is not great.

	DesertSpartan:	Sep 5th, 2012 at 22:37 GMT		2 points
	Another yank that knows little of the rest of the world. I was smart enough to guess Kensington and Chelsea, I rightfully didn't get taht one as I thought they were the names of two different Boroughs.

	grewupatmidnight:	Sep 12th, 2012 at 19:10 GMT		4 points
	I couldn't work out why kingston and richmond weren't being accepted, damn thames... but to be fair I've lived here my whole life and only heard richmond being referred to as 'richmond' or 'borough of richmond'... maybe think about accepting it without the upon thames?

	@14lansdellt: Pffft I got six. You did well.
