Is there such a thing as an uneventful year these days?
It's been a pretty tumultuous time of late and 2022 was no different with huge events in news, politics, sport and beyond.
Since last Christmas the UK has had no fewer than three Prime Ministers, one of whom was famously outlasted by a lettuce.
On a more serious note the war in Ukraine has been raging for most of the year, while households across the country will be struggling this Christmas due to the cost-of-living crisis.
Rapid inflation has brought strikes in many industries as workers look for pay rises to keep up with spiralling costs, with issues with the post and on the railways.
Christmas is a time for appreciating what you have with loved ones – though we all know it can bring arguments as the day wears on.
That's where we come in.
We've put together a diverting quiz to play alone or to bring the family back together after that classic post-dinner argument.
We've got five categories: news & events, politics, music, film & TV and sport, all relating to the year we've just experienced.
There should be something for everyone – as well as questions that will catch even the sharpest out.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
