Another
holiday quiz for you. There is no theme
as such this time, but you will notice something about the answers, which will
help you as you proceed.
As before, however few, or however many, words
there are in the full answer, only one word (in singular form) is required in
answer to each of the 25 questions.
Scoring: 25 questions, two points for each correct one word answer, one
point for a near miss. Closing
date: Good Friday
I have a further observation, and an apology,
to make. Unfortunately, having chosen a
set of subject categories for the questions, I found that MS Word had a mind of
its own and it has scattered the questions all over the place, so that not one
of them has ended up in the right category.
I don’t suppose this will bother you at all, but I wouldn’t wish you to
be misled.
Good luck.
I’ll publish the answers and a high score table on Easter Monday.
