Thank you @TallTrees @Martin-O2 @jonsie 

Pleased you enjoyed the quiz.

Well done @jonsie on getting a Silver Thinker; @TallTrees on getting a Red Thinker; and @Martin-O2 on getting one star . As quite a few taking part passed on some questions, it seems this was not so easy.

I hope that all of you, and everyone else, likes the choice of categories for Monday`s WRQ and will find, at least some of the questions, a little easier.
