Apologies to all avid collectors who may have become excited at the prospect of joining the Toilet Roll Holder Lovers Society, but I'm afraid it doesn't exist. The other mentioned clubs do exist, however, and are presumably thriving.

Answer: Naturists (Nudists)

According to the Sun Devils website "Nude recreation is one of the fastest growing recreational activities in the United States today".

8. In several of the Sherlock Holmes stories, Holmes' brother, Mycroft, is referred to, along with the singular Diogenes Club, of which Mycroft was a member. What was so unusual about this club?

Answer: Members were not permitted to talk to one another

"...There are many men in London, you know, who, some from shyness, some from misanthropy, have no wish for the company of their fellows. Yet they are not averse to comfortable chairs and the latest periodicals. It is for the convenience of these that the Diogenes Club was started, and it now contains the most unsociable and unclubable men in town. No member is permitted to take the least notice of any other one. Save in the Stranger's Room, no talking is, under any circumstances, allowed, and three offences, if brought to the notice of the committee, render the talker liable to expulsion. My brother was one of the founders, and I have myself found it a very soothing atmosphere."

Sherlock Holmes' description of the Diogenes Club, in the story "The Adventures of The Greek Interpreter".

9. According to legend, Freemasonry can trace its history back to biblical times. Who, of the following, has never been a Freemason?
