I have substituted one of the categories proposed for today`s WRQ  with two questions on WORDS  - as a small commiseration for yesterday`s WORD HUNT DIAMOND game having to be postponed.

Thank you everyone for taking part and making the White Room Quiz fun.

Thanks @Mi-Amigo. Must say, although it gave you some grief, those Thinkers are vastly superior to the other ones. innocent Well done all.

Thank you @BobM for giving us all a laugh with your answer to Nintendo game.

 

Sorry you missed this quiz @TheresaV but, as you said, you gave @LukasB a chance and he got a Red Thinker

 

Thank you @Cleoriff 

Yeh I`m pleased to have got the Thinkers sorted out, although I have to resize them each time in Results.

 

I hope you all enjoyed the quiz and like today`s WRQ - with two questions on WORDS to try and make up for yesterday`s WHD having to be postponed.

Great to see the wit and banter in some answers, from peachy (!🍑) princesses (and to which my cheeky gif alluded 😉) to "Q2 Life & Times of LukasB 😂".

Well done all, now we move to the hybrid, for this week only (hopefully!) WHD/WRQ for Weds/Thurs - can't wait to get stuck-in 🧑‍🎓👩‍🎓👨‍🎓😆

Ooh, the first emoji loses the mortarboard, all 3 of em look like 👨‍🎓👩‍🎓🧑‍🎓

But the forum knocked the mortar-board off one of'em, like it does when I use a male face-palm emoji instead of a female one 🤕
