Bbc Quiz : Week 52

[Buenchico]

Good evening all!

Another year nearly gone!

I managed my fairly regular 'middling' score of FOUR out of seven in the main quiz this week:

There doesn't seem to be a junior quiz this week but, because we were all doing the big four-part annual grown-up's quiz last week, I never posted the link to last week's kids' quiz anyway.  So here, a week late, it is for you:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/51318780
(I scored FOUR out of five).

Happy New Year everyone!

[Tilly2]

6/7 for the main quiz.

[Tilly2]

4/5 for the other quiz.

[Buenchico]

It didn't take long for someone to beat me, did it?

Well done, Tilly2! 

[Cloverjo]

A terrible 1 for the main quiz. An OKish 4 for the junior.

Happy New Year

[Sam1960]

Evening Chris.

 

3/7

 

5/5  😊

Hope this finds you well  ; ))

[Buenchico]

I can feel better now!  (Thanks, Clover!)

Happy New Year to you!

[10ClarionSt]

Hmm. 5/7 and 4/5. Unusually high score for me. Must be the high feeling to go with the seasonal whisky!

[Buenchico]

Well done on being a perfect kid this week, Sam!

I'm fine, thank you, as are the loveliest three cats in the world. (Moonbeam's on my knee, giving himself a good wash, as I type this).  I hope that you're well too and that you'll have a great year ahead of you.

[Buenchico]

Perhaps you should be disqualified for the use of  performance-enhancing substance though, 10CS? 😊

Well done, anyway!

[Sam1960]

I'm fine thanks Chris.

Hope 2024 is a good one for you. Take care, and take it easy  ; ))

[Moorea7]

Good Evening 😊  Scores 5/7 and 3/5

Good wishes for 2024.😸

[Buenchico]

I reckon that all the very best people will have an aggregate score of 8 this week, Moorea7 😉

Thanks for joining in each week and all the best to you for 2024!

[haras2]

4/7 v 4/7

4/5 v4/5

8 v 8  Did you mess up on the football as well ?  !

Had a lovely Christmas with wayward daughter and co.

Hope yours was good...

Shady has been following me round like a little dog ever since I got back, making me feel very guilty.

Blwyddyn newydd dda to you and your trio   ☺

 

[jourdain2]

Well you beat me Chris.  I got 3/7 - I could have claimed a near miss and 'plumping' for the wrong one last second,  but there you go. :)

Thanks to a firmly Scottish Mum, I'm not allowed to wish anyone 'Happy New Year' until  the event itself.  I shall do a.s.a.p. afterwards. :)

 

[Karamia]

Good Evening, Chris!

I hope you enjoyed the festive period with the terrific trio. 

My scores are 4/7, 5/5

Our Christmas has been lovely and all the more special with days spent with the grandpuppy, who was extremely excited and full of beans morning till night. Quite exhausting, but wonderful all the same.

I hope you and your delightful kitties enjoy a wonderful year ahead and wish you all the best :-)

[Buenchico]

Welcome to the Eight Club, Haras2!  (I never know anthing about football!)

I'm glad that you had a good Christmas.  (Mine was quiet but very pleasant).

I hope that you're making an extra big fuss of Shady by way of apology for deserting him. The Troublesome Trio are all fine and currently keeping me company in my bedroom.

All the best to you and Shady for the New Year.

[Buenchico]

Hi, Jourdain2.

Your mention of the different ways that Scottish mothers do things brought back memories of my college friend, Eric.  Every Sunday lunchtime his Glaswegian mother would make Yorkshire Pudding in their home in Elland, Yorkshire.  Eric's father, being a traditional Yorkshireman, would have his Yorkshire Pud as a starter, simply served with gravy.  Eric though would have it, as most people probably do, as an accompaniment to his roast meat.  His mother meanwhile would wait until after the main course had been served and have her Yorkshire Pudding as a dessert, served with custard!

Happy New Year to you, anyway

[Buenchico]

Good evening, Karamia!

I'm pleased that you had a lovely Christmas, especially with the grandpuppy to keep you busy!

We all had a quiet Christmas but with plenty of special food (which, after all, is what's really most important to the Terrific Trio!)

I hope that 2024 will be a fantastic year for you!

[kwillmott]

You beat me again!

3/7

3/5

[Buenchico]

A new year and a new start perhaps though, Kwillmott?

(You'll pobably beat me every week in 2024!)

Happy New Year!
