Well I'll give it a shot. Know Q1 some of family are rock climbers and mountaineers. TV again !😪 although Dad's army is ok I have viewed a few of these I like the dry humour. Why the heck would you carry coal for fun.
Roulette wheel, does anyone bother to know where the numbers are? 🤔
Now precious metals and jewels are worth knowing about.
Putting my answers no guesses together.
