Good job me 😅  didn't read Q.3 properly.  Should have guessed Morris Dancing it is obvious when you tell it! So was the star colour. 🌟   I  will engage brain before answering next time.

Well done everyone and thank you for the quiz 😀   @Mi-Amigo

PS I didn't see this quiz on the Easter list? @Breanna put up

@Mi-Amigo 

[Cleoriff]

@TallTrees 

I think @Mi-Amigo meant Monday as the next quiz, not today as written.

Only two WRQ's per week?

Well done everyone and thanks @Mi-Amigo 

[TallTrees]

Good you said that @Cleoriff 

I thought there was a Easter Friday 🐣 

One as well 😁

[Mi-Amigo]

IMPORTANT - 

Massive error on my part, the next WRQ - A to Z part 2 - will NOT be today [Friday] but on Monday [10 April].

Thank you @TallTrees and @Cleoriff for bringing this to my attention.

[TallTrees]

Hey don't worry @Mi-Amigo 

Massive errors to be found when I answer your quizzes 😂😂😂🤩🤔🙄

See you Monday😎

[pgn]

Thinkers all-round and incipiently advance warning of a Monday WRQ @Mi-Amigo 😉
