Well done everyone. Must admit I was lucky with question 8. I tend to mix up Manet and Monet so a lucky guess.

Thanks for another great quiz @Mi-Amigo . The element one was quite easy for someone who loves silver and gold.

The gallbladder question dropped right into my lap.

Thank you @Cleoriff and @TheresaV

Well done on your awards

I don`t think you are alone @Cleoriff in tending to mix up Monet and Manet; and we have had questions on Monet`s paintings in the past, so was a bit of a sneaky question.

I hope you like the categories and questions in today`s WRQ which is now posted on a separate thread, with a couple of questions which might need thinking about or a guess

Well done all, and thanks @Mi-Amigo for a decent choice of questions. For a Monday 😉
