Thank you @Cleoriff

Pleased you like the "Odd Questions" edition, which is always popular with our regular quizzers 😁.

There is one question which might be a bit tricky [it`s not from a quiz book] which I came up with over the weekend for a fairly obvious reason 😂. I wonder how many can guess which question that is and can our regular quizzers get the answer right 😂 ?

lewys-gp — Mon, 04 Apr 2022 09:01:00 GMT

Very interesting, @Mi-Amigo. I think I can definitely get a couple here.

In regards to the category slang, that's something I've been working on as a Welshman now living in London! Butt, Mush, Tamping, Landed, Shunk and more has everyone looking at me like I have two heads 😂. Need to tone it down a bit.

Luckily for me though, I did have a grandad fluent in Cockney 😉.

Thank you @lewys-gp

Good to know you know the answers to at least a couple of the questions and your granddad being fluent in Cockney mght help 😂.

Look forward to pm with your answers later.
