  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    38 seconds is nowhere near fast enough on an "easy" day - I kept scrolling forward too fast and having to back-track.
  • Being a slow reader. :angry:
  • My internet went down ☹️

    That's better - thank you Guessometer! :)

    I felt like I was having a rather up and down sort of month, so I'm quite pleased with that.
  • I think I'm getting the hang of this...
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Starting the month as I'll probably continue - accurate but slow.

  • Memo to self: read the question 😡
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I read the question, but didn't know the answer. No prizes for guessing the topic of the question ... :grimace:
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Ooh - picked the right Old Testament lady! :smiley:
  • I clicked a wrong answer by accident, sigh.
  • Full house (!) in 42 seconds and only 10th 😳
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Well, you learn things doing this quiz - a saying I'd never come across before.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Thank you Guessometer - you know more about 'Murcan telly than I do (not that the bar's set very high).
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Misread the last question. More haste…
  • @BroJames The last Q made no sense.
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    Yes the answer had nothing to do with the question except an accident of sound.

    Without wishing to spoil anyone's enjoyment of the quiz, can I suggest that you look up the answer on Wikipedia. I think there's a use that you're not familiar with.
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    You’re right. Never heard of it. I’m the wrong nationality and/or the wrong age.
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    Fat fingers. Again. Sigh.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    I'd never heard of it either - just had a lucky guess.
  • Must be a pond thing 😳
  • la vie en rougela vie en rouge Purgatory Host, Circus Host
    I have never put that on a baked potato.

    The right answer, obviously, is baked beans, but that's not an option :neutral:
  • I allowed good taste to override good quizzing.

    Still, I've been on a hot run - it had to end sometime.
  • We’ve had the baked potato discussion before, with the pond difference. But this time I remembered the answer they want.
  • But still odd, especially bearing in mind the attitude of the 41st POTUS ...

    I've never had that on a baked spud* either, but I remembered it from a past quiz, and it got me into 4th place, about which I'm not complaining!

    * or on anything else, come to that ...
  • Normal service resumed - Poor Sid propping up the rest of you :cry:
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Third place - how did I manage that??? :smiley:
  • BroJamesBroJames Purgatory Host
    My apologies @Piglet , I’ve bumped you.
  • PigletPiglet All Saints Host, Circus Host
    Well stuff that for a lark - how very ungentlemanly! :mrgreen:
