No you're not.
I appear to know more about goldfish* than I thought I did, which wouldn't be hard.

Slow, slow, slow today! I put it down to deep depression caused by the fact that I checked the standings and realised that a week had passed since I (miraculously) came first, so I was no longer on the winners list. I really enjoyed that week there.

No you did not! I've only just done the quiz, but I admit I had to use it for the fillum question. It's been fed and watered and is now back under the third flower-pot from the left.

Fifth place so far - but that's not much to write home about when only seven people have played.

My time didn't feel like 58 seconds - I must have taken longer than I thought with those stupid "crawl to the quizmasters" questions.
Never mind, fourth place will do nicely for now.
