Damn well done @Mi-Amigo  for the quiz, my thinker and managing to sort out the posting of results. You were starting to do results when I first spotted it, and only managed Theresa's which was all over the place!

Well done everyone. xxx

Thank you @BobM @Cleoriff @pgn @TheresaV  

Your comments are much appreciated.

Pleased you enjoyed the quiz and well done each of you on your awards.

Yes, I did get as far as doing results for Theresa when I found that post was all over the place and needed to be redone.

I may be the biggest technophobe on the Community but I do know something about format layouts and, as I said, there was no way I was going to let this new format wreck WRQ, which for me is my pride and joy.

 

I honestly believe that together, we can and will get the forum we want and not be dictated to as what we have to put up with.
