Well what a poor effort  from myself! Pfffttt. Good job I didn't say openly that I thought the quiz was nice.😂

I knew as soon as I saw the Badious question, I was stumped. Even now I see the answer,  it doesn't ring a bell.

Oh well, let's see if I do any better later on. 🤣

Edited to add well done everyone. xx

[MI5]

Thanks @Mi-Amigo and well done all.

[BobM]

Happy with that - thanks @Mi-Amigo 

Good quiz - well done all.

Not a shock this week, although if I'd read Q1 properly it might have been a red. Hey ho.

Well done everyone, and thanks @Mi-Amigo 

[pgn]

Most enjoyable - not often there's only one Silver, even less often that it's me 🤣

[Dave-O2]

Thanks @Mi-Amigo 

Seems 2 is my common score 😂 Well done everyone 👍
