Some people see things as they are and ask "Why?"; I dream of things that never were and ask "Why not?"

Thank you @Cleoriff .

Pleased you like the quiz.

Some questions might need closer attention as they are not quite as easy as might first seem.

As you know, sometimes guesses pay off.

Some good answers and some guesses incoming.......

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
