Well thanks for the quiz questions @Mi-Amigo

I may know one or three of these

You know "I Don't do people especially actors" but I definitely know... people 2 question because this person is horribilis .. in my opinion 😂

Nature ok ... N2 is tricky for me

Books...just have to get books 📚 🙄 right so... a guess here.

Parliament hmm 😒

Places not too bad so maybe.

Polish up your bronze statue 🗽Thinker 😅🤣
