Bbc Quiz : Week 22

[Buenchico]

A good week for me, for a change:

I scored SIX out of seven on the adult quiz (after, annoyingly, changing a right answer to a wrong one at the last moment, preventing me from scoring maximum points)

. . . and FOUR out of five on the junior one

How will YOU do, I wonder?

;-)

[Buenchico]

Well done, Campbellking!

How on earth did you get Robbie's permission to be away from him for a night though? (My darling Moonbeam goes into panic mode if I just nip down the road to the Co-op for a few minutes!)

[Theland]

2:-(

[naomi24]

Dismal. Three and two - good guesses included.

[Buenchico]

Better than quite a few people though, Theland ;-)

I reckon that you've just sneaked under the wire with two 'bare pass' scores there, Naomi ;-)

Robbie kindly thought as it was my birthday I could stay in London overnight and his old friend and former housemate would feed him. He might have to wait some time for me to come home tomorrow as the train service is rack and ruin over this weekend

[Buenchico]

Happy Birthday for the day just ended, or for tomorrow (whichever it might be), as appropriate, Campbellking!

Thanks Chris, it was yesterday. Was showing my age at work on Tuesday when I mentioned to one of the junior staff who has the same birthday that we shared it with Kylie ( who is 2 years younger than me) .’ Who , Kylie Jenner? ‘ came the response.

[Buenchico]

I'm reminded of a time when trains were nearly delayed at the railway station I worked at due to a colleague's fixation with a certain part of the anatomy of a London-bound passenger on the platform. If they had have been, I'd have had to entered the cause of the delay into the station records as "Kylie Minogue's bum" ;-)

Well done Chris, almost perfect this week, whereas I was distracted when Steff posted the Km Links, therefore, with a lot of guesswork:

3/7
3/5

[Buenchico]

Excuses, excuse, Twix ;-)

You've done a lot better than quite a few people this week, anyway!

[JJ109]

2 out of 7 in the adult one
3 in the kids one
Oh dear!

[Buenchico]

Better than half marks in the kids' one anyway, JJ109 ;-)

6
4

[Buenchico]

Welcome to the club - twice over! - Emmie ;-)

Well done!

[10ClarionSt]

Both 3/5 this week, Chris. Should have been 4 in the adult one cos I knew the gold rosary beads one and pressed the wrong answer. Grrr! Apart from that, everything's ok thanks! :o)

[tiggerblue10]

7/7
3/5

Can't believe I got a full house for the adult quiz (3 were total guesses). Really pleased with that :o)))

[Ken4155]

Full house on the Adult quiz :-))) 4 of them i knew, 2 of them were total guesses (never watched Friends but knowing Beckham as we do...) and i applied some of that there logic one hears about to the Japanese railway question.
Just 3/5 in the Junior quiz and i would have had to have slept for a week not to have known the 3 correct answers.

[Buenchico]

Aha! Latecomers, I see! (I'll bet that not one of them has brought a note from their mum, explaining why they couldn't get here on time!).

>>> I knew the gold rosary beads one and pressed the wrong answer

If you're that trigger-happy, 10CS, I'm glad that you're not a police marksman ;-)

BRILLIANT, Tigger! A perfect adult and a well-rounded kid too! Congratulations!

'Ditto' might seem rather inadequate here as a response to Ken's fine performance but it fits the bill perfectly ;-)
Well done, Ken!

[MargoTester]

Snap Chris 6 and 4 for me too

[Buenchico]

Welcome to the club - twice over! - Margo!

Well done!
