A relational database is being developed to store information about the games that are available
7. to play at a games café and the advance bookings that have been made for those games. Each
game has a unique name.

The database contains two tables: Game and Booking.

The database is currently being tested by the person who has developed it so the database
tables only contain a small amount of data that is being used for testing.

The contents of the tables are shown below.

 Due to a change in layout at a games café, the game table with an ID of 2 is no longer suitable
8. for games that can have more than four players. The manager needs to find out the customer,
date and time of all bookings made for the game table with an ID of 2 that are for a game that
can have more than four players.

Write an SQL query that could be used to find this information for the manager. The results
should be shown in date order.
