So this how the responses to this WRQ went in my house today
1. So I feel I should know this. I recognise the name. I don’t know from where though. This is really annoying
2. That had me laughing like a little school boy
3. Another I feel I should know. I am sure I have heard the word before, probably from someone being rude in some way.
4. Not someone I have heard of
5. Another one, it is in my brain somewhere, promise….can I have the point anyway?
6. Never heard of it but if I was going to my doctor I’d ask him
7. Taken a guess. Let’s see how that goes
8. Art is definitely not my subject
Well that is how it all started out. Then my son came downstairs and I asked him for his help.
I will definitely take him along to a pub quiz.
Got answers/guesses to go with numbers 1, 5 and 8 now. I'll share the thinker with him, well only if I get one.

Don't say that @Mi-Amigo
does that mean I'm not thinking? or only thinking that I'm thinking.
