Hi !!!
I am wondering if :-
a) I am the only one doing this quiz or
b) If there is some sort of embargo on it or
c) If fellow quizzers have moved elsewhere?

I have posted a few questions as the closing date is approaching fast but there seems to be no interest out there !!
Please, somebody ...........!!!!

[Munden]

I'm so far behind on this one I've virtually given up, but may be able to help out with the few I have.

[Arabesque]

I've given up on this quiz as I found it far too difficult. Good luck

[crofter]

Regarding the Dragonfly Quiz, I am embarrassed to have to admit that you have discovered a second typo in that Q36 should be 7 letters!

Please accept my apologies!

Hi Pea Brain I'm still battling on with this quiz at the moment but really stuck on a few
16 Is this a very large goose
29 Take a crude form of saddle and mix
51 Stitch up an olive shaped button
56 Put a note between discoloured and protective clothing
60 Dove coloured
62 Scramble of or like a straight pointed missile
78 Take a love bite but replace a note with a word to link alternatives
79 Mix slightly to draw near and a swarm of young
80 A turkish standard marking rank by number
97 Churn together a treated tissue, a facial feature and a deep trench

To be honest with this many still to get I'm on the verge of giving up but happy to help if you need answers to any others..c

I have given up on this quiz its too difficult.I am relieved to think others think so too. Posting help for so many questions proves the point! I like to think I can use my brains or use Goggle to solve a fair proportion of a quiz, and I am a keen gardener with a reasonable knowleadge of plants, but this quiz-no way! Fortunately there are other quizzes out there that are much more enjoyable.
