Bbc Quiz : Week 7

[Buenchico]

Good evening all (or, of course, good morning or good afternoon if you're a latecomer or overseas).

It's been a poor week for me this week. First of all, for the umpteenth year in a row, Royal Mail lost the big sack of Valentine's cards that I'd been expecting to receive. Then, to make it worse, I could only manage a barely passable THREE out of seven in the main quiz:

I only achieved 'middling' in the kids' quiz, with THREE out of five:

I thought I was heading for a zero score in the Timed Teaser this week, getting the first nine questions wrong! However I managed to get the final question right, giving me a 'magnificent' ONE out of ten ;-)

So I reckon that EVERYONE should be able to beat me easily this week!

Getting better. I actually heard about some of the 'news' this week.

4/7,2/5,4/10. Bailey has been hiding behind the bath all week, better speed home tomorrow to cheer him up. Puss Puss just happy to share his love with anyone as usual, doubt if he has missed me. Hope you are all well, don’t think I will be struggling to fight through the Valentines either…

A better week this week, 5, 4 and 7.

[Buenchico]

We'll have to improve slowly together, I think, Kwillmott ;-)

What, Campbellking? Has Royal Mail lost my Valentine's card to you as well? Shocking!

Well done on getting some reasonably decent scores, anyway. I hope that you'll give Puss Puss and Bailey loads of treats, to apologise for your absence! (My lot all enjoyed their 9th birthday on Tuesday!)

Good scores, as ever, from you, Lie-in King!

Good evening, Sam. As always, I'm "not too bad for an old 'un", thanks! I hope that you're well too! Not great scores from you this week, maybe, but better than mine, anyway!

Hiya, Patsy! At least you managed a double-figure aggregate, which is a lot better than I could do!

Flamin' 'eck, Milo2! You're way out in the lead with those scores! WELL DONE!

[cashier]

Three and three.

[cashier]

Only one in the timed.

[haras2]

3/7 v 2/7
3/5 v 3/5
1/10 v 2/10
Pretty hopeless as well this week
Hoping you and yours are all fine :-)

[Buenchico]

We're PERFECT, Cashier!!!

Well, a perfect match for each other, it seems, anyway ;-)

[Thanks! I'm feeling better now!]

;-)

[Buenchico]

Someone else with an aggregate of 7 this week, I see!

Welcome to the club, Haras2!

My and mine are all fine, thank you, as I hope that you and Shady are too!

[Karamia]

Good Evening, Chris!
My scores nothing to shout about this week :-(
3/7, 3/5, 3/10
Can't believe you didn't receive my Valentine in the post! :-)

[Buenchico]

Good evening, Karamia. Your scores are still better than quite a few other people (including me) have managed this week!

I'm sorry that you didn't get my Valentine's card either. I heard that, being so big, it got damaged beyond repair when the truck carrying it went under a low bridge ;-)

[jourdain2]

Gosh! Not easy! I echoed you, Buen, until the end when I had a lucky guess at one.
3/7, 3/5 & 6/10

[Cloverjo]

Evening, Buenchico. Friday again already?

4, 3 and 3 for me.

[Buenchico]

Well done with that impressive 6/10, Jourdain2!
[I could have done with something like that to make my own scores look a bit more respectable this week!}

[roopower]

Good evening. 3 and 3 for me too, I'll try the timed tomorrow.

[Buenchico]

At least you reached double figures with your aggregate, Clover! That's a lot more than I could do this week!

Good evening, Roo.
'Welcome to the club' with the first two, anyway!
