That's because I came close to forgetting a week or so ago @Mi-Amigo

Beautiful picture of Whistlejacket. Had that framed picture here for a long time, then my sister asked for it.

As she had done so much for me over the years I let her have it.

Couldn't find a gif of Whistlejacket though Lol

To our regular quizzers

@Cleoriff @MI5 @RafaC @pgn @lewys-gp @BobM @gmarkj @TallTrees @Martin-O2 @jonsie

and anyone who wishes to have a go at this quiz,

I`m sorry there is an error in Question 1 which should read

Q1 GEOGRAPHY 1 What is the name of the peninsula in Canada, with Hudson Bay to the west, Hudson Strait

to the north, and Gulf of St Lawrence to the south-east ?

not Gulf of St Lawrence to the south-west.

If anyone who has already sent a pm with their answers wishes to change the answer to this question, I`ll accept it as the error is my fault. I hope that those who have not yet sent their answers see this notification.

Sorry. I hope this doesn`t spoil the quiz.
