15 Answers
Christmas is on the way - I hope your turkey is ordered, your present wrapping production line prepared and your tinsel primed. If so, then maybe you'd like to spend some time with a quiz, or two!
(If you're not ready, I wish you the best of luck!)
Check back to the November Quizzes and Puzzles Round Up thread to see quiz and puzzle results updates, thanks from setters and how much money was raised!
NOTICE: Please remember it is vital that you add contact details i.e. email or postal address, the closing date, the cost, where the quiz funds will be going and the theme of the quiz, thanks.
