Thank you @Cleoriff 

Pleased you think there are some good questions in this WRQ.

I tried to find a nice mix of subjects and questions - after the recent rather difficult WRQs.

 

In the last "Odd Questions" WRQ - on Wed 05 May https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Off-Topic/White-Room-Quiz-Wed-05-May-2021-quot-Odd-Questions-quot-edit... - everyone got a Thinker. 

Will the same happen with today`s "Odd Question" WRQ ?

Only know 2 letters of the morse question so guessed the others to make a word up!
