Monday`s White Room Quiz will be a "normal" quiz with 8 questions, with two questions on each of the categories

HISTORY GEOGRAPHY TV GAMES

I will search out the eight questions for this quiz over the weekend.

As for Wednesday`s White Room Quiz, this will be a "April Fool/April 1st" edition.

I have already prepared the 10 questions but, I am not going to reveal the topics or categories as this might give a clue as what the questions might be. But all will be revealed on Wed morning...

Thanks, @Mi-Amigo , another great quiz, no history (almost) - well done all!

My gif was from this absolutely hilarious Pixar/Disney short that came on the Wall-E dvd, and, as it's Friday - wth! 🤠

There's a lot going on in the background too, if you have it on a big screen 🤣
