Thanks @Mi-Amigo, as I've predicted, no joy outside of Art-themed questions.
Onwards to today's WRQ to see if I can do a bit better this time around.

Well done everyone!

[gmarkj]

Didn't think this would go very well for me, and not surprised!

Well done everyone who took part, and interesting set of questions quiz master @Mi-Amigo .

[MI5]

Thanks @Mi-Amigo 

I'll check today's quiz later.

[Comben]

Thanks Mi-Amigo, tough questions but a nice mix and I almost got myself a thinker. In fact I wish I’d paid more attention to the Beckham question as I did know that but accidentally read it wrong and gave you the eldest child. 😬

Well done to those that got the Thinkers and also to everyone else that struggled with me… It makes me happy to know I’m not the only one that finds the WRQ hard.

On the the next one now. 👍🏻
