Welcome to

There are two White Room Quizzes each week - one on Monday and one on Wednesday.

Today`s White Room Quiz is a Numbers Special. Don`t panic! This is not a maths quiz.

Today`s White Room Quiz is eight questions - with one question on each of these categories 

 

   HISTORY   PEOPLE   PLACES   NATURE  LITERATURE   MUSIC   TV   SPORT

 

The answer to each question is a number. You don`t have to give names etc, just the right number.

 

The White Room Quiz is open to all members.

Those wishing to take part must pm me - @Mi-Amigo  - their answers between 12 noon today [Wednesday] and 11.59pm tomorrow [Thursday].
