**IMPORTANT NOTICE**
As I have mentioned previously, I have a hospital appointment on Wednesday which means the results of this Monday`s WRQ will be late.
However, this created another problem.
The questions for Wednesdays WRQ would also be posted later than normal.
As this isn't fair to anyone who takes part as it would limit the time to get your answers to me, I have decided a workround.
I have asked @Cleoriff to post the questions for me.
@Cleoriff will not gain any advantage as I intend to send her the questions on Weds Morning before I leave for the hospital.
So she will get to see the questions just before you do. This will be her only involvement.
All answers will be sent as usual to me. I will of course let everyone know when I am back.
Thanks
Mi-Amigo.
