Thanks @Mi-Amigo and well done all.

[gmarkj]

Happy with that - no clue on the bird, or golf, and the darts one needed some paper to work out.

Well done everyone, and thanks @Mi-Amigo

Thank you @pgn @Cleoriff @MI5 @gmarkj @jonsie @TallTrees 

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

I was pleased so see how many gave the correct answers to the sports questions which I got from online quizzes.

[Comben]

Wow awesome that we all got a thinker in this WRQ, I love to see it, so well done everyone. 😁

I also enjoyed checking over the rest of the answers to try and learn a few more things, it may not stick but I find it interesting regardless. I also found it funny some of the players QM's and Mi-Amigo might share the same reference books. 😅
