6. That's my PA system, it's channelling the local radio station through the pulpit mic giving the sermon some unfortunate background music....(true)

That's my pew sheet - it has the same notices asking for volunteers 8 weeks running!

(Please remember that no. 6 each time should be a positive rather than a negative response. If unsure, read again the OP rules. Chorister, Host)

beachcomber (and others who are not sure what to do), it's always a good idea to read the OP to check you understand how to play the game - please do this before continuing.

Thanks, Chorister, Host
