Bc Quiz : Week 8

[Buenchico]

Good evening, all!

 

Friday seems to come around quicker every week!

 

A decent enough start for me this week, I feel, with a score of FIVE out of seven in the main quiz:

This seems to be one of those weeks where there’s a technical glitch with the junior quiz site, with at least one correct answer (as per the info at the foot of the page) being marked as wrong in the actual scoring. (It was the space question which threw a wobbly for me). So please watch out for that and report your real score (which might not be what the website says you’ve got!). With that in mind, I managed a maximum FIVE out of five this week!

Your turn!

^^^ 'Bc'?

Another low score

2 / 7

3 / 5

 

 

 

[Buenchico]

Keep trying, Kwillmott.  You'll get there eventually!

[Arksided]

Oh dear mine reads like the code names for Bodie and Doyle:

Main: 3/7
Jnr: 4/5

 

[campbellking]

2/7,3/5. The real winners this week are the kitties because our lovely student who finished today gave me chocolates and the biggest bag of Dreamies.  Hope all is good with you and yours

[Buenchico]

At least you're a near-perfect kid this week, Arky!

Hi, Campbellking.  Not the greatest of scores maybe but who cares anyway?  As as the cats are happy, that's all that matters!

(Chequers was too lazy to go downstairs for some Dreamies tonight.  Moonbeam and Tablo were only half-interested too.  I think that it's because they've had so many other treats lately though!)

[Moorea7]

Good Evening😊  Wanted to go into hiding tonight after scores of 2/7 and 3/5.

[Sam1960]

Evening Chris.

 

3/7

 

2/5

 

Not the best set of scores  : (

 

Hope this finds you well  ; ))

[Patsy33]

Good evening, Buen x

[Buenchico]

Hi, Moorea7.

It looks like you're not short of company this evening with those scores anyway!

 

Hiya, Sam.

Yes, I'm fine (although very tired for some reason tonight), thank you.  I hope that you're in the finest of forms.

You seem to have plenty of company with your aggregate score of 5!

 

Good evening, Patsy.

You've managed to beat quite a few people, at least!

[jourdain2]

Thanks for the advice on the Jnr. quiz., Buen.  You still beat me in both!  

4/7 and 4/5  :)

[Cloverjo]

4 and 2

[Buenchico]

You're in second place, anyway, Jourdain2!

[I hope that your hip isn't troubling you too much this evening].

 

Hi, Clover!

Better than several others tonight, anyway!

[Karamia]

Good Evening, Chris!

Well done on those fabulous scores. Not my best night

4/7 and 3/5

Those new photos of the kitties were all so gorgeous. Sounds like they are all very content if they can turn down treats. 

Went to visit my friend with her 2 cats who are also doing well and looking all grown up now. Not too old though as they still enjoyed chasing around after the cat toys, so great fun! 

Love the way they like to sleep stretched out on the windowsills, like 2 cat ornaments.

Wishing you and the kitties a wonderful week ahead :-)

[haras2]

5/7 v 5/7

5/5  Ooh! v 2/5 Boo !

Saw the sun today - first time since Christmas I think...

One of the dogs is unwell and Shady (sworn enemy) has been

sitting near him (unheard of) as though to keep him company - strange.

Hope your three are all sitting nicely as I am sure you are 😊

 

[Lie-in King]

5/7 & 4/5

[Buenchico]

Ruddy 'eck!  I've beaten Lie-in King this week!

(Well done, all the same though, LiK!)

 

Decent enough scores from you this week, I feel, Karamia.  (Bang in the middle, twice over!)

'Contented' probably does describe the Troublesome Trio quite well, although there a few other words (many of which couldn't be repeated in polite company) which I use to describe them at times!

The next time you go to visit your friend, wy not take some photos of her feline companions, so that we can all see just how lovely they are?

I hope that you'll have a really lovely week!

 

Hi, Haras2!

Well done on matching my 5 on the grown-ups' quiz!

'Sun'???  I seem to vaguely remember that word from somewhere but I seem to have forgotten what is actually is!

(We've had flooded roads around here again today, due to plenty of rain.  Now it's ruddy cold, with the temperature only just above freezing.  Using the Met Office's definitions of when the seasons occur, it'll be Spring in just a week's time but it certainly doesn't seem to be very Spring-like here yet!)

I hope that the poorly dog will be back to full health soon.  (Shady has probably just realised that if a dog is off his food, there'll be some left for him!).

I've just given my lot some sachets of Felix Original Soup that I found I'd got left over from their Christmas treats.  Chequers and Moonbeam seemed to enjoy it but Tablo couldn't be bothered to go downstairs for it.  

I hope that you and Shady will have a great week!

Oh dear! Back to normal for me Chris. 1/7 and 3/5. I know I'm late this week. With those results, perhaps I shouldn't have bothered! 😊

[Ken4155]

Terribly late on parade, Sir. Knew there was something i had forgotten to do but couldn't fathom what it was until i saw 10C's post.

Anyhow, 6/7 in the main quiz - never been much good when it comes to the passing of time and got the 'light year' question wrong.

Matched your 5/5 in the junior quiz thanks to a couple of educated guesses.

[Buenchico]

Latecomers are always welcome, folks!

At least you avoided any zero scores, 10CS!  Better luck next week!

 

Just when I thought that I was going to stay at the very top of the tree this week, along comes Ken to steal my thunder!  Well done indeed on those fantastic scores, Ken!
