Bbc Quiz : Week 7

[Buenchico]

I know that most of you lot will be . .

(a) enjoying a candle-lit supper with a gorgeous partner ; or

(b) stuffing yourself full of all those Valentine's Day choccies that you've been sent today ; or

(c) recovering from the torn muscles that you sustained picking up all those Valentine's cards from your mat this morning ; or

(d) getting over the hay fever that you've acquired from having over a thousand red roses delivered to your home . . .

. . . but, just in case you've still got time to have a go at this week's BBC quiz, here it is:

I've actually read all 7 stories this week but 'reading' and 'remembering' aren't synonymous, so I could only manage a score of 4. (That's one better than I usually get though!). If your memory is better than mine, I reckon that you should find it fairly easy to get a decent score this week. So will you then?

;-)

[zebo]

4, the first 4, once I started concentrating it all went downhill!

[Mozz71]

Got the first four, failed the last three.

I'll join you on 4 then Chris.

[Mozz71]

Haha, I missed your post zebo. Snap.

[scorpiojo]

5 :-)

[ubasses]

I am another 4 this week

[Milo2]

I haven’t done any of the above so I’ve had time do the quiz. After the high of last week, it’s back down but still managed 5 so not too disappointed.

[cashier]

Five for me this week.

[Buenchico]

It can be so frustrating when you think you're heading for a maximum score and then it all goes wrong, can't it, Zebo and Mozz71?

It looks like the clubhouse for people on 4 will need to be quite bit this week, with me, you too and Ubasses already in residence.

However the house next door, for those on 5, seems to be filling up quite quickly too, with Scorpiojo, Milo2 and Cashier being first to the bar in there!

[Mamyalynne]

7/7 - A cruise to victory; gobsmacked!

[Tilly2]

6/7.

[-SharonA-]

5 for me! I got the bill gates and dinosaur one wrong.

[Buenchico]

Flamin' 'eck!

I didn't think that it looked like being one of the hardest weeks but, all the same, Tilly2's score of 6 is fantastic and Mamya's 7 is nothing short of amazing!

Well done, both of you!

[Buenchico]

Who can be expected to know the nicknames of dinosaurs though, Sharon? (Other than Fred Flintstone, of course!)

Wel done with that 5 anyway!

[Patsy33]

4/7...

[tonyav]

4 for me this week, things must be on the up it's usually a three for me.

[Eve]

All at sea, 5 for me, was doing so well until the last two haha!

[ducksie]

Good evening Chris, everyone else :)

7/7 - not bad, delighted an oul Irish one was put in there - I could nearly give running commentary on that darned election now :(
ases of coronavirus on board. The 14-day tour had been due to end in Yokohama, Japan, where another cruise ship - Diamond Princess - was quarantined with more than 200 passengers taken ill. However, authorities there also refused the Westerdam permission to dock.

Score: 7/7

Question: 7/7

Next

[emeritus]

Only 3 for me Chris this week, although in my defence I’ve had a vino or two for Valentines evening !

[Buenchico]

Oh, yet more company in the clubhouse for those on 4! Welcome, Patsy & Tony!

Oh dear, Eve! Zebo and Mozz71 must have felt frustrated by getting the first 4 correct but then no more. The frustration must be even greater when you get the first 5 correct! Well done, anyway!

We're definitely going to have to ban Ducksie from taking part! He/she keeps making the rest of us look pathetic! (BRILLIANT, all the same, Ducksie!)

[ducksie]

Ah thank you Chris :) I never got banned from a quiz before hahahaha I just got lucky with the dinosaur and another one the rest I remembered ;)
