@Mi-Amigo really pleased with my Bronze award

That China question was a *** so I passed

I don't watch Gavin and Stacey so I guessed Llanfair p g.

As always, you put together a fantastic quiz

I learn things and sometimes find out more about them afterwards as my interest has been piqued.

Well done everyone

Mi-Amigo · ‎03-02-2021

Thank you @Anonymous

Well done on getting a Bronze Thinker

You weren`t alone in your thoughts on the China question and the Gavin & Stacey question also caught others out.

Pleased you enjoyed the quiz because that`s what it is meant to be - fun.

Hope you like the questions in today`s WRQ.
