A couple of 'I must think hard about those' questions @Mi-Amigo 😂

Off out now. Will give me time to think. Lol

[Mi-Amigo]

Thank you @Cleoriff 

No trick questions but a couple which are trickier and might need thinking about...

I have been humming this classic since reading the questions - absolutely no use whatsoever for answering, but an ear-worm nonetheless:

[Mi-Amigo]

Love it @pgn 

Reminds me of a version of the song which Sheldon sang whilst drunk in The Big Bang Theory 😂
