Damn so close to a bronze thinker but still no dice! I know I should be happy with my best score of the year but it seems the bronze thinker alludes me everything... At least I have almost 100 more shots at it this year! 😂 

Well done to all of us though, for each achieving a thinker plus lots of full marks out there too so congrats to those quizers. I'm now off to find out what the twist @Mi-Amigo has added to the Monday's WRQ.
