From Furry pussy cat about her quiz:
Buxton Mountain Rescue Quiz 9.
I have just noticed the entry of my quiz in the 'Quizzes & Puzzles Round Up' and would like to clarify the wording which states - 'In aid of supporters of Buxton Mountain Rescue Team'.
This quiz is sold on behalf of the team and 100% of the money raised goes to the team itself and not to supporters of the team which is completely different.
If anyone would like to support my latest quiz who hasn't already, full details can be found in the Round Up section No: 30 in the list.
Thank you for your continued support.
