Hope you like the questions when you get the chance to have a look @Cleoriff 

Please note the clarification on Q8 the Scrabble tiles question.

[jonsie]

Two random guesses but I think you were more than generous for Q8 @Mi-Amigo . I just couldn't think of the last part of the name so I reckon you should relegate me to bronze

[jonsie]

ps I haven't got round to today's quiz yet, a couple more things to do after tea

[Mi-Amigo]

Thank you @jonsie 

Q8 wasn`t easy, so your answer was acceptable and so your award was deserved.

Hope you like the questios in today`s quiz.

Look forward to pm with your answers when you get the chance.

Good luck.
