My most sincerer apologies for the very late response to the above quiz due to illness and family problems.
There were 10 All Correct answers and the winner drawn out of a hat was Mrs E Morgan of Cheshire. Well Done! The quiz raised £113 for Macmillan Cancer Support and Email answers have been sent but I cannot reply to the ones who sent stamped addressed envelopes as unfortunately they have been destroyed IN ERROR with Christmas Cards, envelopes and wrapping paper etc.,
I am taking a break from setting quizzes for now until I have more time to do it properly
Sincere apologies once again and many thanks for your wonderful support.
A Happy New Year to you all.
