Welcome to
In case it looks odd that (@Cleoriff) is posting this and for those of you who are unaware, @Mi-Amigo has a hospital appointment this morning. To make sure there was no delay in Weds quiz questions being posted, this PM was sent to @Cleoriff before I left for the hospital this morning.
All she had to do was post the questions.
