Suited me that quiz @Mi-Amigo 

Well done everyone 😊

[pgn]

Good quiz, thanks @Mi-Amigo and well done all. The cat teeth was a gamble, 2 less teeth in the lower jaw from some documentary in the distant past... And the Turner, representing the end of an era, hence the Bond gif 🙃

[BobM]

Well done all, good results 👍

Thanks @Mi-Amigo - good quiz.
