Bbc Quiz : Week 37

[Buenchico]

Good evening, all. It’s that time of the week again - even though it doesn’t seem anything like seven days to me since we last did this!

 

I could only scrape a score of THREE out of seven in the main quiz this week:

I couldn’t do any better in the junior quiz either. Just TWO out of five for me:

Still no Timed Teaser though 😕

 

Your turn, anyway!

I rather like the multi-tasking going on in this thread (and I can cope with it in spite of not being a woman 😄 😄 😄)

[Sorry for the delay in replying to posts.  I've been out shopping].

Hi, Haras2.

Well done on reaching the halfway point in the main quiz.

The Ed has already had an email from me today, pointing out things that don't work as they should here.  I might not be too popular if I keep sending more of them!

I hope that you and Shady are both well and that you'll have a good week.

Hi, Lie-in King.

You've still done far better than most peoplr have this week!

Hi, Jourdain2.

Well done on being a big kid this week!

I've just had to google to find out exactly where Melrose is.  ('Scotland' was as near as I could get without help).  I hope that you'll have a lovely week up there.

[The cats and I are all fine, thank you.  I hope that you're fighting fit too!]

[Buenchico]

I've been trying to multi-task all evening long, Canary42 - and failing miserably at it as always 🙄

Ruddy 'eck, Piggy!

Very well done indeed with that PERFECT 7!!!

[Toorak]

Just 1 for me - I am too stupid to do the others I think😵‍💫

[Buenchico]

Well I suppose that it could have been worse, Toorak 😄

[Toorak]

Not much buen

my excuse is that I have just had an outstanding meal and my brain is fuddled 

[Buenchico]

You should have poured some of that meal back into the bottle, Toorak 😄

[Toorak]

The wine flight might have had something to do with it 😌

Shady's response was strictly tongue in cheek - he's really into BOLD.. :-))

[Buenchico]

Chequers is far too timid to ever have anything to do with BOLD, Haras2 😊

4/7,2/5. Lots of guessing going on this week. Bailey and Puss Puss still thinking it is pretty warm, Bailey making himself into a trip hazard in as many places as possible arouad the house.Trust all is good with you and yours.

23.10 thanx Chris 

But I have to say it was pure luck! ,I knew 2 and the rest were guesses!

I ran out of luck on the 2nd quiz🙁

[10ClarionSt]

Errrrrr......not good. In fact total garbage. 1/7 and 2/5. I'm on my way to the head's office now Chris!

[roopower]

Thanks for the flea treatment tip, chico, might give it a try. Our cats don't think much to the fur parting either. We have to do Buster first, if he gets wind of what we're doing, we won't see him for ages!

I went to bed last night convinced that there was something i hadn't done. Had i left the front door unlocked? Had i left the lights on downstairs? My phone was there on my bedside table, my replenished water bottle beside it and my treading glasses all cleaned and ready for my Kindle. Went to sleep still wondering what it was i hadn't done🙃

4/7 in the main quiz and just 2/5 in the kid's quiz - the football one and the NASA one.

Thanks Chris, not too brilliant this week:

4/7

2/5

Time to go for another few 🍺 🍺 me thinks 😀

[Buenchico]

Ooh!  Latecomers!

 

Hi, Campbellking.

Well done on sneaking ahead of me.

Despite the warm weather, Chequers and Moonbeam seem to be moving into winter mode and spending most of their time with me in my bedroom (which is also my 'office', 'radio shack' and just about everything else).  I'm delighted by that though because Moonbeam didn't seem very confident about coming indoors last winter, so he spent a lot of time out in the cold and the rain. I'm hoping that he'll be happier indoors this coming winter.

Tablo, meanwhile, is still following her girlie instincts to spend all night hunting.

Moonbeam is the trip hazard around here, especially when I'm trying to move heavy shopping from my car to the house!

I hope that you and and the Darling Duo will all have a good week.

 

Hi, 10CS!

Better luck next week!

 

Hi, Ken!

I spend much of my life wondering what it is that I should have done but haven't!

Well done on beating me, anyway!

 

Excellent thinking, Twix!

There can never be enough excuses for a few extra bevvies 😄
