Bbc Quiz : Week 14

[Buenchico]

I managed a 'middling' score of FOUR out of seven in the main quiz this week:

I couldn't do as well in the junior one though.  Just TWO out of five for me:

Your turn!

[haras2]

4/7 v 1/7

2/5 v 3/5

Cat fine, weather fine, who could ask for more ?

Hope you are all the same   😄

Buenchico - I feel like a stalker........... 4/7 and 2/5 for me, too!

Better news about Mr.J2 this week - after v. bad news on Tues. - he's being prepared for re-hab.!!  :)  :)

[Buenchico]

Hi, Haras2!

You're a better kid than me, anyway!

I'm glad that things are going well for you and Gobolino.  We're all fine here too, even though the medics seem to want to use me as a pin cushion at the moment.  (I had a Covid jab this afternoon, then I've got a hormone injection next Tuesday and a blood test next Friday).

The warm weather is lovely, although I wish that it wasn't so cold at night.  (I seem to spend half of the night in bed feeling really hot and then theother half feeling really cold!)

Have a good week!

 

We're a perfect match yet again, Jourdain2!

I'm glad that you and Mr J2 finally have some good news!

I hope that you'll both have a great week!

[haras2]

Buen, I had a covid booster yesterday, I think it's the IN thing this week.....

[Buenchico]

Covid boosters don't seem to be wildly popular around here, Haras2.  Last time around I struggled to get an appointment and ended up having to travel to a pharmacy 11 miles away.  This time I got an appointment at the end of the day with my local pharmacy (half a mile down the road) without any problems at all.  However I got a phone call mid-afternoon, encouraging me to turn up whenever I liked as (quote) "I'm just sitting here twiddling my thumbs".

Evening, Chris.

5 and 4

[sandyRoe]

Oh dear.

2/7 and 3/5.

I was probably so intrigued by American politics I neglected ordinary news.

[Buenchico]

Top of the table, at the moment, Scorpiojo!

Well done!

 

At least you're a better kid than me this week, Sandy! 😊

[scorpiojo]

😊

[Lie-in King]

5/7 (2 guesses) & 3/5

[Canary42]

3/7 on the main quiz - shocking that I got the WHSmith wrong since I worked there from 1976 to 1979 🙄

1/5 on the Junior.

 

[Sam1960]

Evening Chris.

 

3/7

 

2/5

 

Hope this finds you well  ; ))

[Buenchico]

Hi, Lie-in King!

Well done (as usual) but you need to watch out.  Scorpiojo seems determined to steal your crown! 😊

 

Good evening, Canary42!

At least you managed to avoid any real disasters! 😊

 

Hiya, Sam!

I'm well thanks (apart from 'pin cushion syndrome' - see my post at 2034!).  I hope that you're well too!

You're only just a point behind me this week and, given that quite a few of my right answers were guesses anyway, I reckon that we can just call that 'statistically insignificant' 😄

[maggiebee]

2/7 and 2/5.  Feel like I've been on another planet!

[Buenchico]

Hi, Maggie!

I often feel that I'm on another planet.  It's a feeling that gets confirmed when people tell me that "I'm not all there" 😏

[Karamia]

Good Evening, Chris!

My scores tonight are

4/7, 3/5

Had an absolutely wonderful Mother's Day, my first as a new Grandma. However, shortly after my son and then myself were struck down by some dreadful sickness bug. I have only just managed to struggle out of bed today. We think my poor dad might also have covid as he has been ill for much longer.

Hoping for better things in the days to come and wishing you and kitties a wonderful week ahead :-)

[Buenchico]

Well done on edging ahead of me this week, Karamia!

I hope that you and your family members will all make full and rapid recoveries!

Have a good (and healthy!) week!

[Ken4155]

Nearly all guesses but 6/7

Again, plenty of guesswork but just 1/5

 

[Buenchico]

Well done on being our leading grown-up, Ken!

[Arksided]

Tripped at the last hurdle on the Jnr one and went for the wrong one 🤔

Main: 4/7
JNR: 4/5
