Darned computer glitches! It had a little R&R at the wrong moment so my 10/10 took rather longer than anticipated!
Anyway here is the quiz again.

Exactly, Pete!
Funny think was, as I clicked on one answer, I thought to myself "I bet it's...." (choosing another almost randomly). Shame I didn't wait and change my answer to that one, seeing as I'd have been right!
Still, very content with a win yesterday. Shame I totally forgot to play the day before!

I took 94 seconds to complete the quiz and scored a perfect 10/10. Really, those questions were sooooooo easy! I want a challenge!

For a challenge, try doing it in a third of the time. You still wouldn't win, though, as we have some pretty quick guessers here.

At first I was embarrassed that the Weasel and the Wabbit got the one right that I got wrong - but then I realised it's because they are older than me. That song was before my time! ![[Biased]](wink.gif)

A complete guess on the film question but, amazingly, I got it right - 10/10 and even slower than yesterday!

Proud to have got two wrong - I'd have been worried if I'd known the answer to those!

Apparently, my ability to actually click on the answer I knew to be correct is faulty. Perhaps this is a Scales and Hanon™ day!

49 seconds today and I cannot blame uploading or downloading time as it was pretty quick - perhaps I'm just a thoughtful sort of character.
running first at the moment - or until someone else plays.

It's sweet when I get 10/10 and Antisocial Alto gets less than that, and all the sweeter for its rarity.

The boy has been complaining about the internet connection being slow for ages and I keep telling him to learn a bit of patience, that waiting a few seconds isn't going to shorten his life any. Then I do a speedy quiz and the bloomin' bloomin' slow internet connection adds an extra 20 seconds or more to my score. I shall be on the phone to my internet provider in a minute - this just ain't good enough!
