Thank you @BobM @RafaC @TallTrees @MI5 @Cleoriff
Pleased you enjoyed the quiz and well done on your awards.
@Cleoriff Thank you for pm with your query about one of the questions.
On checking, there are four service stations for motor vehicle on M25 plus one for HGVs
As the question did not specify motor vehicles, I`ll accept 4 AND 5 as correct answers.
Therefore the awards need to be adjusted and

Thanks Mi-Amigo, I very much enjoyed this WRQ. Although I'm not sure how I got half a mark for my complete guess in question 1 but I'll take it. 👍
Very pleased with my Red Thinker overall and well done to everyone else... Lots of people with top marks in there and at least one star from all players. 😀
Have to add onto the comments about the roulette wheel, it's creepy all the numbers add to 666... It's a clear sign right there yet we still play!
