Is it possible to obtain this fruit and vegetable quiz,it looks very interesting.

[Andy Cheever]

Tomato looks the best option so far, thanks valerieb. Midhurst, this quiz is a monthly local church magazine quiz brought in by one of my working colleagues, whose approaching 70 and still working!! He gets it from his wife who attends the church. We help out but I believe it's only open to church members. There are 20 questions and the theme changes every month. Winner's prize is 5 pounds worth of booktokens so I guess they do it for the fun of it, which should be the reason for doing all quizzes.......shouldn't it?
