Bbc Quiz : Week 15

[Buenchico]

It’s Friday again . . . but will it be a ‘Good’ one for our weekly quizzers, I wonder?

A decent enough start me me anyway, I feel, with FIVE out of seven in the main quiz:

However I could only just about scrape through on the kids’ quiz, scoring a measly TWO out of five this week:

There are one or two easy questions in the Timed Teaser this week, which probably accounts for me being able to achieve a reasonable score of SIX out of ten in it:

TTT posted a link the other day to another BBC quiz, where there’s no numerical answer but you get to find out the type of predatory creature that you’re closest to. (It’s intended for kids but we’re used to that here anyway!). If you missed it then, you might care to take a look at it now, as I found it to be quite enjoyable:

(Apparently, I’m a tiger!)

Happy quizzing!

There seem to be a lot of wolves around tonight. As it's a full moon tomorrow night, I wonder if Caran and HW4 will be howling at it?
;-)

[Well done with those decent sprint scores, both of you!]

[goodgoalie]

I managed a good 6 on the main quiz - questions this week about events I'd actually read about!

[Buenchico]

I generally feel totally out of touch with the world, GG, irrespective of my score in the quiz ;-)

Well done anyway!

2 on the adult and 3 on the kids

On the deadly predator one, I am a persona non-grata! It will not let me take part as I live outside the UK. Boo hoo! (I am a big kid at heart, see!)

[Buenchico]

Not brilliant, maybe, JJ109 but not disastrous either ;-)

With regard to the predators, please consider yourself to be an honorary tiger - because all cats are wonderful ;-)

Aaarrrgggggghhh. A 'very nearly' week for me in the two main quizzes. I got 6/7 - guessed the motorway question incorrectly - and 9/10 - thought the answer to the last question was too obvious so went for an incorrect guess.
Just 3/5 in the junior quiz.

[Buenchico]

Good evening, Ken!

You're still clearly out in front overall, with joint top score in both of the adult quizzes. Well done indeed!

Now, will your luck hold for the horses over the weekend - or will it be another case of 'so near, yet so far - I wonder?

;-)

Thanks Chris,

6/7
3/5
7/10

I did the predator quiz earlier this week and discovered that I was like Citizen Smith of the Tooting Popular Front, better known as 'Wolfie'. The nearly full moon was slightly obscured by thin cloud this evening, but I'll look out again tomorrow!

[Buenchico]

Good evening, Twix!

There are some cracking good scores there! Well done!

I think that you'll only need to really worry about the full moon when you see the hairs growing on the back of your hands ;-)

[roopower]

3,3,6, and apparently, a hammerhead shark! I would have thought I was a pussy cat.

[Buenchico]

Ooh! Some latecomers, I see! (More still welcome, of course, though!):

Good scores from you (as I've come to expect these days), Emmie!
Yes, I can see the resemblance:

;-)

Your scores are mainly like my figure, Tigger. Solid around the middle ;-)

Welcome to the Super Sixers Club on the last one, Roo!
I don't think that you're looking your best today though ;-)

[roopower]

Maybe not, buenchico, but my teeth look fabulous!

[10ClarionSt]

Oh dear, Chris. A lot of 'P' points for me this week. 1/7 and 2/5.
Even the one I got was a calculated guess, so I suppose I'm with the lead balloons! ;o)

[Buenchico]

It's no good trying to hide your scores by posting a day late, 10CS. I still see them ;-)

Thanks for joining in, anyway, and better luck next week!
