Good evening all!

Happy New Year!

Firstly, left over from last week, we've got still two of the four parts of Aunty Beeb's big annual quiz to have a go at. I scored a somewhat mediocre SIX out of thirteen with the July to September section:

Proving that my short term memory is appalling, I could only manage a lowly FOUR out of thirteen in the October to December bit:

Despite that lousy short term memory problem though, I got a decent enough (in my opinion) score of FIVE out of seven in this week's regular quiz:

Having surprised us with a junior version of the annual quiz last week, Aunty hasn't yet got around to setting the normal weekly kids' quiz for us to have a go at 😒

However there's an entertaining little quiz about Christmas to have a go at here:

(I scored THREE out of five)

Your turn, folks!

I know you were a Maths teacher, Bueno, but this is too much on a Friday night !

Dusting of snow on the Preselis today, but Gobolino has been out on his rounds as usual.

Sounds as though your trio are keeping you snug 😄

^^^ That's better than I did, Tilly2!

Well done with that 5/7, Alba!

(Happy New Year!)

Good evening, Sam!

We're all well here, thanks, as we hope that you are too!

Your scores might not be top class but they could have been a lot worse!

I hope that 2025 will be a good year for you!

Thanks for giving it a go, anyway, J2!

(I find that some of those little junior quizzes can be quite entertaining. I particularly liked that one!)

Good evening, Haras2!

You seem to be better at being a grown-up than me but not so good at being a big kid!

We seem to have avoided the worst of the weather here and, with mainly rain (rather than snow) forecast for the weekend, it looks like we'll continue to do so. It's still been cold outside though, with the Feline Threesome much preferring to stay warm with me here in my bedroom. I feel sure that there must come a point when even Gobolino says to himself "I've had enough of all this white stuff. I'm staying indoors with my new tame human!"

Happy New Year!
