I started doing that last week @TheresaV...
Just thought it's got as much chance as any other random answer to being correct.
Well, maybe not but it's amusing nonetheless!

@gmarkj

I found your answer - @LukasB - to Q1 hilarious and well done on your Bronze Thinker.

@BobM

Sorry your guesses didn`t quite come off this time but you did get a Red Thinker + only just missing out on a Bronze Thinker.

Whether you are a model or a shrimp @LukasB is up to the quizzers @LukasB

I can`t bump @gmarkj up to winner for the rest of the year as there is no favouritism on the WRQ...
