Yeah, not happy about "hookhook" either ?

Re: White Room Quiz Mon 15 Feb 2021

Mi-Amigo — Mon, 15 Feb 2021 10:21:23 GMT

@TallTrees and @MI5

I thought the bird - "hoohook" - question might be a bit of a head-scratcher

Re: White Room Quiz Mon 15 Feb 2021

MI5 — Mon, 15 Feb 2021 10:22:41 GMT

I've no idea so it will be a guess

Re: White Room Quiz Mon 15 Feb 2021

Cleoriff — Mon, 15 Feb 2021 10:43:51 GMT

Never heard of it either so I think it's a joke question

Re: White Room Quiz Mon 15 Feb 2021

MI5 — Mon, 15 Feb 2021 10:46:46 GMT

Yeah, I'm convinced of it
