Bbc Quiz : Week 26

[Buenchico]

Week 26? That’s half way through the year! Get those sprouts on for Christmas, folks ;-)

A middling start for me this week, with FOUR out of seven on the main quiz:

The junior quiz is rather tricky this week. Well, that’s my excuse for a measly ONE out of five, anyway ;-)

Somewhat better, but still far from fantastic, for me in the sprint event, with FOUR out of ten:

Beating me should be quite easy this week, I think, but will YOU do it?

[Ken4155]

PS; and the one i got correct in the kid's quiz was a guess :-)

[Buenchico]

Well done on the pair of fives, anyway, Ken - and thanks for keeping me company with that score of 1 !

When I first started including the kids' quiz each week, I was worried that people might feel insulted by being presented with something so simple. It doesn't seem to have worked out that way though ;-)

[emmie]

5, 4, 5 mostly guesses this week

[JJ109]

A grand total of 5 this week - split 3 adult and 2 kids. Oh dear!

[Buenchico]

I wish I had that sort of luck with guessing, Emmie ;-)

Well done!

[Buenchico]

You still managed to beat me on the kids' one, anyway, JJ109 ;-)

[JJ109]

Obviously my guesses were better than yours on that one Chris!

[twix123]

Thanks Chris. Not too bad this week, although a lot of guesses.

6/7
3/5
5/10

[Buenchico]

As I've written so many times, Twix, guesses all count!

Well done with those impressive scores (all of which are better than mine!).

[JimF]

7/7 for the main one.

I have long since given up on the others.

[Buenchico]

That's called 'cowardice', Jim ;-)

Very well done on that perfect 7 anyway!

[roopower]

4,2,4 so I beat you by 1 this week, buen, that's worth flagging up. You were late with the sprout reminder, my husband got in first!

[Buenchico]

Well done, Roo! You're twice as big a kid as I am ;-)

It's OK to leave the sprouts until around now as long as you cook them in a pressure cooker for about 6 months ;-)

[Gromit]

A very unimpressive 3 for me.

[Buenchico]

It could have been worse though, Gromit ;-)

[Arksided]

Some guesses, thought I'd have good chance this week.
Wow was I wrong!

News: 5/7
JNR: 2/5
Speed 4/10

[Buenchico]

You beat me twice, anyway, Arky!

(Well done!)

[Arksided]

Thanks, just about to look up Photosynthesis in the dark. I'm like com 'on that can't be true.
