Have surprised myself by getting 25! I feel somewhat hampered by having never read a Secret Seven book in my life, should probably try to remedy that.

Scored 24 in the June quiz which is the best I have ever done.
I have noticed before that the answers to a quiz are posted at the stroke of midnight of a new month but the new questions do not appear until a few hours later. That is why I don’t attempt the new quiz until later in the morning.However, ‘Georgina’ is obviously noting the old month’s answers at midnight and then answering them before the questions change.
I could score 30 doing it that way.

Whew I am badly out of practice. A miserly 18 scored. :oops:

Well done Barnard! I only got 21 (which is about average for me) but in a very slow time...at least a whole minute slower than everyone else up to now!

A lot of these questions I believed I have seen before but I have never took screen shots or snap pictures or anything of the sort of the answers. I rather do it the way I have always done it.

I think that Darrell and Darrell Rivers is the same person and has had two goes.

Never mind, Boodi.
Maybe Stuttgart will have a good season to make up for it.

Congrats Barnard, that was very good. I got 21, not one of my best score yet but it's ok. Better luck next time Boodi 2.
