Thank you for your comment. Err a couple of your answers did include a naughty answer which I did find amusing

All in all, it is all the players who take part which make the quizzes fun - and may that continue.
Thank you.

Thanks, @Mi-Amigo!

Answers by PM mean you probably get to see the more, er, risqué thought-processes as the answers are deduced... Probably get my messages deleted by a Mod otherwise 😬

Yes, quiz and Off-Topic generally are fun areas, not intended for deadly serious debate (not that you'd notice betimes!) 🤣
