Hi @Mi-Amigo 

Will join in later.  Maybe trying for me this time 🤔

[Mi-Amigo]

Thank you @TallTrees 

Look forward to you joining in later.

Tbh, the questions are slightly different from some we have had recently.  

[Mi-Amigo]

btw Q3 should read Wire In The Blood - not Wired [oops]. 😁

[Cleoriff]

@Mi-Amigo 

Some good questions and some headscratchers today. 😂

[Mi-Amigo]

Thank you @Cleoriff 

I tried to come up with a good mix of questions for today`s WRQ - some easier [?], some not-so-easy.

None of the questions taken from quiz books are rated "difficult" but that said a couple might need a little bit of thinking about.

Good luck, everyone.
