Hi there @Mi-Amigo

Oh! now you know me and the hit singles, Footy FGS 😭

After the first question it was pretty much a "downhill Slalom"

no worries I will test myself on these and let you have the

answers (such as they will be) in due course i.e. after 12noon

as specified.

The 2000th question is fabulous (but not for me) 😃

RafaC — Mon, 27 Jun 2022 09:59:54 GMT

A lot of "passes" for me on this one. Great 2000th question, although I can only remember one song title by Westlife, hope it's the correct one 🤣

I know only one group who have recorded "Woodstock" but they're definitely not a "one hit wonder" band so Q8 is a miss for me 😑

Hi @Mi-Amigo

My answers should be with you.

That 2000th question ????? I have gone with a westlife song that was on mentioned on top of the pops rerun that I was watching the other day. It was from the early 2000s, can't remember if it was 2000 so hoping for the best.

A couple there a know and others have just guessed.

Thanks for the continued quizzes and to hosting through to the 2000th question , with the help of @Cleoriff along the way.
