For me, this should be renamed 'Brain DEAD Teaser' @Mi-Amigo 😖
I logged on at 06.30 this morning and have been staring at this since then 😂
I had a Sainsbury's delivery and thought maybe I could ask the driver when he brought my shopping through. Then, I discovered he was Polish with limited English so I left him in peace. I thought he may be confused if I asked him about Mary's eggs. 😂😋🤣
So far I have 7 answers. Probably 2 are correct.
PS, I hate the 100% Club on TV. This reminds me of that. 😰

Confident on 7, guesses for the other 2.
Still, WAY better than the Monday quiz!

Looking forward to pm with your answers @Cleoriff
You never know you might be lucky.
As for 100% Club on ITV, I love it and yes I confess that`s where I got the idea for the Brain Teasers
