Bbc Quiz : Week 46

[Buenchico]

Good evening, all!

I could only manage a 'passable' score of THREE, out of seven, on the main quiz this week:

However, even though my mother would certainly not have agreed with it, it seems that I'm actually a perfect kid, as I scored FIVE, out of five, in the junior version!

Your turn!

Evening Chris.

 

4/7

 

2/5

 

Hope this finds you well  ; ))

Hello Chris et al, writing as a much happier jourdain - although still plenty of family problems.  Nasty neighbour has been resolved by local community police and OH is recovering rapidly, back to walking over a mile when I take the dog out!  Onwards and upwards - although I idiotically twisted a ham around the l. sciatic this lunchtime - painful!

Back to the serious stuff - 4/7 for grown-ups (guesses all count, right?!) but 3/5 for the kids.  So an aggregate of 7.

Congratulations buenchico - you are winning so far!

Not been paying attention - 4/7 & 4/5

[scorpiojo]

5 and 5 (2 lucky guesses)

Hi, Sam.

I remain "as well as can be expected for an old 'un", thank you 😊

I hope that you're well too!

Well done on beating me in the main quiz!

 

Bang in the middle with your scores this week, I see, Jourdain2!

It's good to read that things have been getting better in your life and, in particular, that your mobility is now much improved.  I look forward to seeing the YouTube videos of you dancing the can-can once again 💃 😊

 

You're still joint top anyway, Lie-in King!

[Buenchico]

^^^ I wrote too soon!

Well done, Scorpiojo!

You're out in the lead and, I see, another perfect kid! 😊

[sandyRoe]

3/7 and 4/5 

For me that's good going.

[Buenchico]

Decent enough scores, indeed, Sandy!

Who knows, maybe you'll score a double maximum soon?

[haras2]

2/7 v 2/7

5/5 v 3/5

Not so good this week,too busy settling Gobolino in - well that's my excuse. Have to make sure the bathroom door is shut as he has already had whale of a time stripping two loo rolls off the holder. Hope your three haven't been hooligans this week and you are keeping well ... 😁

[campbellking]

3/7,4/5. Puss Puss and Bailey on a bit of a chicken and cheese hunt this week. Hope all is good with you and yours .

[Buenchico]

Good evening, Haras2!

I'm confused by "too busy settling Gobolino in".  Surely it's Gobolino who's getting you trained (to cater for his every whim, naturally), rather than the other way around, isn't it?  😺 😊

The Furry Threesome are all fine, thank you, and continuing to drive me potty, as usual.  We all hope that you'll have a good week!

[Canary42]

A brilliant (for me) 4 out of 7 on the main, but a poor 2 out of 5 on the junior, my usual forté..

[Buenchico]

Hi, Campbellking!

Thanks for keeping Sandy company!

It's Tablo in this house who goes mad for cheese.  (She used to just like Cheddar but she's now happily tucking into Stilton, Danish Blue and Gorgonzola as well!).  They all love chicken though, especially if I bring them some freshly-cooked portions from Morrison's rotisserie counter!

I hope that all three of you will have a lovely week!

[Buenchico]

Hi, Canary42!

Well done on beating me on the main quiz this week!

At least we know that neither Ipswich nor Norwich can lose this weekend 😏

[Cloverjo]

2 and 4. They were mostly guesses. 😔 

I do read the papers, but not the right bits, apparently 

[Buenchico]

Decent enough scores anyway, I think, Clover!

As you say, you're obviously reading the wrong newspapers.  (Does 'The Beano' actually count as a newspaper though, I wonder?)

😁

[Karamia]

Good Evening, Chris!

My scores are

4/7 , 3/5

Had really lovely time spending more time with grandpuppy this week who now seems to be more relaxed  when around me and we are now enjoying more snuggles. He is lovely with granddaughter too and so gentle.

Looking forward to hearing more news about the latest exploits of Tablo, Moonbeam and Chequers.

Wishing you and the terrific trio a wonderful week ahead :-)

[Buenchico]

Good evening, Karamia!

I see that you scores are 'bang in the middle' this week.  That's a lot better than I can often manage, so well done!

It's good to read that the grandpuppy is more relaxed with you now - although I've never really known any puppy to fully relax; they're far too full of energy!

The Terrific/Troublesome Trio are much the same as ever.  When I go to bed, Tablo insists upon coming under the covers and snuggling up next to me (or, more usually, on top of me!).  Meanwhile Chequers will spend most of his time at the bottom end of my bed, severely limiting the amount of space that's left for me. (Sooner or later though, he'll decide that he needs a cuddle and come up to the top of the bed).  Moonbeam continues to refuse to go anywhere near to his siblings, so he sleeps downstairs.  (I've given him a nice comfy bed, which he's currently using, but he never seems to want to sleep in the same place for more than a fortnight or so.  He's the strangest cat I've ever known!)

We all hope that you'll have a lovely week!

[pastafreak]

I'm tied with clover. Guessed my way through both of them 😂

[Buenchico]

^^^ Most of my answers, every single week, are probably guesses, Pasta! 😄
