Great WRQ although I am gutted to not score points, I think I feel victim to overconfidence. I knew the Harry Potter one if I just stopped to think about it and also the scrabble one was very getable too.
With a little more thought and maybe some luck I could have been a Bronze Thinker but as it was I didn't even manage Red. 😳 Oh well on to Wednesday WRQ now. Cheers @Mi-Amigo.
