Thank you to everyone who bought ‘Don’t get in a State’ quizsheets. There were 9 all correct entries and the winner after a draw was P Claughton.

Everyone who sent an SAE should hopefully now have received their returned entries and new quiz. Similarly everyone should have received email copies of both answers and new quiz although I have had an email from a regular quizzer pointing out that although she’d received it the email address was wrong. Apologies if that has happened to you or for any reason you haven’t received yours yet. Maybe water has got into the system! ( I’m in Carlisle)
