At the risk of spamming:

Triviasquares.com is holding a free entry Halloween quiz with £115 worth of cash prizes to be won.
Guess the spooky words and phrases with missing vowels and extra spaces. Eg. WTC HSCT could be Witch's Cat. It's a bit like the last round of Only Connect if anyone watches that.

Hi Ed. It has been suggested that I write to you. I am trying to get a little picture by name . I have been given a link, but can get no further than putting in my e mail address. I have tried this before, but did not get ony further than my e mail address then. It asks me to put in my password, but there is no place on the page for a password. I am probably doing something wrong. Any advice please.? By the way, really enjoy the answerbank. Bobbie
