Bbc Quiz : Week 19

[Buenchico]

Good evening, all!

I hope that everyone's OK and able to enjoy the lovely sunshine this weekend.

I could only manage a pathetic ONE out of seven in the main quiz this week!

I did rather better in the junior quiz though, with FOUR out of five:

Your turn!

Hi, Clover!

It's definitely a low-scoring week, so an aggregate of 6 puts you in joint second place this week! Well done!

 

Another 6 (aggregate score) from Karamia, I see!  Well done!  (Most of us couldn't manage to get that many this week!).

I hope that you've managed to book a Covid jab reasonably close to where you live.  The nearest appointment I could find was at a pharmacy 11 miles from my home (with most of the other places offered being over 20 miles away).  Mine certainly left me very tired (although coming just two days after my 12-weekly hormone injection, which also knocks me for six, probably didn't help either!).

Dentists and I definitely don't get on! My last check-up was over half a century ago, with just a handful of emergency treatments during that period!

I was going to head to Gorleston tomorrow, initially to 'play radio' with my transceiver and then to enjoy the seafront.  However I've just seen the space weather forecast, which suggests that it will be almost impossible to make any shortwave contacts tomorrow morning.  So I might have to change my plans.  (There's a Polish Heritage Day at a community centre in Ipswich tomorrow afternoon.  After struggling to learn the language for a year at evening classes, I'm tempted to go along).

The Terrific (a.k.a Troublesome) Trio and I hope that you'll be able to enjoy the weekend sunshine and that, despite the jab and the dentist, you'll have a good week ahead of you!

Not as lucky as last week...

Main: 3/7
Jnr: 4/5

[rowanwitch]

3 for both,  which is good considering I have hardly had the tv on this week as I have been doing so much stitching.

Chris! Chris! There's something very wrong! It must be the summer heat! It's gotta be! 6/7 and 5/5. Get that Ipswich bus out of the garage for my victory parade! 😄😄

Hiya, Twix and Arky!

Well done with your aggregate scores of 7.  That's a lot better than most people have managed this week!

 

Well done on beating me too, Rowanwitch!

 

Ruddy 'eck, 10CS!

I don't know what stimulant substance you've been taking but can I have some too, please?

WELL DONE!

Droopy drawers, all the 4s. 4/7 and 4/5 - didn't realise the affection the Brazilians had for Madge was so huge.

[Buenchico]

That's definitely one of the better aggregate scores this week, Ken!  Well done!

Least said, soonest mended!!!!!

^^^ Low scores seem to be the norm this week though, Maggie!
