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

As to the Science questions on Monday, all I can say, at this point, you`ll have to wait and see what I`ve got in store

and @pgn - err I haven`t run out of Monarchs or Battles, got a couple of such questions coming up soon.

Don`t shoot me, I`m only the question master/setter
