Thank you @MI5 and @Cleoriff

Pleased you think today`s quiz is "not too bad" and you "like the look of this one".

After some difficult and tricky questions in the two WRQ last week, I have found three questions for this WRQ which are rated as "easier" or "moderate".

Look forward to pm from each of you with your eight answers later.

Good luck.
