I got four right, but no-one can tell me which four (or what for).
A truly ingenius quiz, though.

The answer to that one, as every parent knows, is "Because I said so." Which is why I got 10 out of 10.

It seems that none of you have realised that this was an exclusive quiz to be taken by those shipmates with higher intellect and those who have X-ray vision.
This was a wonderful psychological idea by Pants who has now sorted out the sheep from the goats, as it were.
If you can not see the quiz you have a few options: 1. You need you eyes tested. 2. You need to sort out your cookies. 3. You really should stick to simple games.
Failing that, the moral of this quiz is: the blind shall lead the blind.

I only got nine, and I hate that. There is always a trick question!
I shall take it again when no one is watching and shall get 10. Unless I forget which question was the trick, in which case I will probably get nine yet again.

Not fair! I got 80% first time and then I remembered the other two answers

Ok, the time had come to admit something.
Much as I'd love you all to go on thinking that I'm witty and clever, it's not true, I'm actually just gormless!
When I posted this thread, I meant to put a link to a quiz that I'd found about 'farting'!! I deliberately didn't put that in the title, but obviously had meant to put the link in.
But your responses all show what imaginative people you are!!
