Bbc Quiz : Week 29

[Buenchico]

It’s Friday again, in a week where we can all blame the heat for our low scores ;-)

Having provided my excuse in advance, I can now reveal that I scored just THREE out of seven in the main quiz this week:

Another THREE for me (out of five, of course) in the junior quiz:

I did a bit better with the Timed Teaser, scoring SEVEN out of ten this week:

So, will you be blaming the heat for your low scores or will you be blazing your way to success? Do tell!

I got 1/7 for the first quiz

[Buenchico]

You've got to try the other two quizzes now, Susan, on the basis that there's a better chance of things getting better than getting worse ;-)

[Redhelen72]

7/7
3/5
7/10

[Buenchico]

Ruddy 'eck, Helen! Well done! A perfect grown-up!

[Redhelen72]

It’s amazing what you can achieve after a whisky or 2

[Buenchico]

^^^ I'll have to switch from beer, Helen ;-)

[cashier]

Six and two. Not hot here today cold and rain.

[wolf63]

I got 3/5 for the kiddies quiz.

[Buenchico]

Well done on being a near-perfect adult in wherever it is that's cold and wet, Cashier ;-)

[Buenchico]

See, I said that you'd get better, Susan ;-)

[cashier]

Three in the timed.

[Buenchico]

^^^ That's probably what I would have scored in the timed quiz too, Cashier, if my guesses hadn't been particularly lucky this week ;-)

[campbellking]

Mediocre at best, 3/7, 2/5,4/10. No new kitty as yet, need to get the fence redone first. Hope all is good with you.

[kwillmott]

It's fun doing - no zeros

1/7 2/5 4/10

[Sam1960]

Evening Chris.

2/7

2/5

3/10
if you would like to pass me the pointy hat, i'll go and sit in the corner :(

Hope this finds you well ; ))

[tonyav]

4/7, 2/5 and a rubbish 3/10 for me.

[Buenchico]

Good evening, Campbellking. 'Mediocre' is better than 'disastrous', anyway ;-)

It's good to know that you're thinking of getting a new feline friend. Get that fence fixed!

Hi, Kwillmott. You were doubling your scores at each stage. If there'd been a 4th quiz, you should have scored 8 ;-)

Greetings, Sam. I'm remarkably well for an old 'un, thank you. I hope that you're doing well too. Take your lead from Kwillmott this week and celebrate avoiding any zeros ;-)

[Buenchico]

Hi, Tony.

You managed the same aggregate on the first two as me anyway. (I only did reasonably well on the final quiz through some lucky guessing).

I'm finishing off the last can of Ukrainian lager at the moment, with a Polish one (Tyskie) waiting in the wings to follow it.

[Canary42]

A poor 2 out of 7 on the Main, a stunning 4 out of 5 on the Junior and reasonable 6 out of 10 on the timed.

[Buenchico]

I sneaked ahead of you by a single point on aggregate, Canary42, but that was only through some surprisingly lucky guesses on my part. At least you're a near-perfect kid this week ;-)
