Thank you @gmarkj

Pleased you are happy with a Red Thinker for getting four correct answers so this quiz was indeed tricky.

Thank you @O2EmmaLouise

Well done on your award.

I think everyone agrees this was a very difficult quiz, hense the slightly different version next Wed, which should be fun, and there will be a Spring Bank Holiday Special with what I hope will be thought of as a mix of easier and not-so-easy questions.

Thank you @TallTrees

Pleased you like the idea of multi-choice answers in next Wednesay`s WRQ.

@TheresaV

Good to hear that @LukasB will be back for the WRQ next week.
