Bbc Quiz : Week 19

[Buenchico]

Greetings all, from the feline madhouse!

A reasonably good start for me this week, I feel, with FIVE out of seven in the main quiz:

Only 'passable' for me, in my opinion, in the junior quiz though. TWO out of five:

I managed to clear the half-mark hurdle, with SIX out of ten, in the Timed Teaser this week:

So that gives me an easy-to-beat(?) aggregate of 13 points.

Any takers?

4/7 in the main quiz but the link to the junior quiz doesn't work, so I went on the BBC website to do it and I shouldn't have bothered cos I got 0/5! I know nothing!

Chris @ 21.14:

"Ooh, tha's ever so posh, aren't thee?"

I'll have to correct you on that Chris, as follows:

Ooh, tha's ever ser posh, an't tha?

You knew that anyway, didn't you, having lived in chuffing Sheffield? Wee wah woo wah! :o)

Not very good - 4 and 2

A full-house 7/7 in the 'proper' quiz:-)
Couldn't access the Kid's quiz - keep getting the 404
And a whopping 2/10 in the timed quiz - would have been a 3 but i ran out of time just as i clicked on the correct answer.

Good morning, 3/5 for the children's quiz, so worth the wait. Aggregate of 10, I think, so you're safe from me this week.
I can't blame medication for being overweight - just food. Managed to lose 13lbs since February 13th so am on target fot the 2 stone by the time I see the surgeon again. Hopefully, I'll get my new hip soon after.

Hi, 10CS!

You're not the only one who regretted tracking down the junior quiz this week. Toorak did the same and also scored zero! (Let's think about that for a moment shall we? It's a KIDS' quiz. The clue's in the word, I think. Grown-ups are meant to find it EASY!)
;-)

[I can still speaker 'proper' Sheffield, 10CS, even though it's more than three decades since I left there. I sometimes struggle with putting it down on paper though!]

Oh dear, JJ109! Better luck next week!

Hiya, Ken! There's a working link to the kids' quiz at 2019 on the first page of this thread.

Very well done indeed on that PERFECT 7/7 though!
(I swear that the timer bar in the speed quiz moves faster every week!)

Hi again, Roo. 3/5 is actually looking like quite a good score on the junior quiz this week! (There have been a couple of zeroes!). I hope that the weight loss continues to go well and that, after a successful hip operation, you'll be dancing the can-can again very soon ;-)

It would be good if I could start dancing the can can - I never could before! I'll settle for being able to stand and cook a meal or hang the washing out.
