A,W,X,Y,Z.........

'The X Group' is a Swiss company and watch manufacturer. In the late 1980's, the CEO of X (let's call him Y) began developing an idea for a new car. He believed that the automotive industry had ignored a sector of potential customers who wanted a small and stylish city car. This idea soon became known as the "X mobile"


While design of the car was proceeding Y feared existing automobile manufacturers would feel threatened by the X mobile, thus rather than directly competing he preferred to cooperate with another company in the automotive industry. Y approached several manufacturers and on July 3, 1991 he reached an agreement with Z to share development of the new project.

However, in 1993, Z appointed a new CEO, who sought immediate termination of this project with X, because Z had been working on its own 'economy' car and he considered it a better prospect than the X mobile.

Y then approached plenty of other automobile companies and after being rebuffed by plenty of them, he finally reached an agreement with W to manufacture the X mobile. In 1998, W bought out X and today, we know the car as the A.

Give me X, Z, W, A and Y.

BET ... YARUKKU?? YEDHUKKU??

Recently, X lost a bet to Y. The bet was made on motorsport and the condition of the bet was that the loser would shave his legs, don a skirt and make up and then serve as an air hostess for one flight on a particular airline, performing all the tasks a regular air hostess would. On losing the bet, X, being a good sport, agreed to stick to the condition and carry out his end of the bargain.

Incidentally, Y worked as a financial controller for one of X's companies in the late 80's.

Tell me who these two gentlemen are and what they bet on.

"FOOTBALL POLA VARUMA ....."

This is a tribute to a great footballer X, which you will find outside Z's stadium, A.






This is a picture of X and his famous strike partner, Y.



This is A, the stadium of Z, a club X played for.


Today, X's ashes are buried beneath the centre circle of A.

X and Y linked up very well together. In an FA Cup final where Y scored a hatrick, X stunned everyone with his dribbling. Today, this final is remembered as the 'X final'. In the dressing room after the game, X drank champagne from the Cup, the first time in his life that he had knowingly consumed alcohol.

X, Y, Z and A?

TOLEDO...

This is a little bit complicated, but very easy and very Googlable, so try and refrain.  I want X, Y, Z, A, B and C.

This book of short stories was written by Del James. It features an intro by X, who is the lead singer of Y. It includes the story 'Without You', which inspired B, a song by Y.

A, B and C are three songs which appear on the double-album Z by Y. Their music videos form a trilogy of sorts which X claims was inspired by the book, although fans often argue about the order of the songs in this trilogy. This trilogy has been called the Illusions Trilogy by X.

Additionally, B and C are two of the most expensive music videos ever made. The production cost for C's video was over 4 million dollars and the video was widely panned when it first came out for being too extravagant - many critics took this as a sign of X's growing ego.
