When I was putting this quiz together, I did think that some of the questions might be a challenge.
In fact, it is not the first WRQ in which we have had no Silver Thinker.
Hopefully, everyone will find next week`s WRQ quizzes a little easier.

Thanks Mi-Amigo, I’m happy to get 3 because that WRQ was very difficult, needing to have very specific knowledge of people and events during a certain time frame. Well done to those with correct guesses I was no where near on mine. 😂
Looking forward to an easier WRQ on Monday. Where hopefully we can get back a Silver Thinker. 👍🏻
