My answers have been sent @Mi-Amigo.

 

Thank you as always for your dedication to making the WRQ possible twice a week. Some difficult questions this time, but I love the alphabet theme regardless. I'm not hopefully of getting a high score this time but everyday is a school day so I'm sure I'll learn a thing or two come Friday.
