OT - Quiz

Because of other commitments I am unable to run a virtual gathering suggested by Lezzers his weekend. Anyway snow is forecast. However, I was thinking of a quiz. I could post the questions at midday tomorrow with the winner being the first person to reply with all answers correct. Anyone interested?

Snow ⛄🌨️🏂, really??? Definitely a quiz then. No cheating everyone, I promise not to. 🤥

If people cheat Goggle slows them down. Just imagine people Googling on Mastermind (my favourite quiz, second is University Challenge) they would only have time for three or four questions! 🤣🤣🤣

I'll probably only understand 3 or 4 questions anyway!!🤣🤣 Used to love both of those shows at one time

Morning Pauline! I'm so happy to see a post from you!👏👌😊🎉I was wondering how you and your husband are...there hasn't been anything from you here for ages, unless I overlooked it...I missed you and wondered if you're ok. 🤔

Morning Monica,John is still in hospital, still not very well. They are now saying he as had multiple strokes. So his brain is still scrambled. I get 45 minutes visiting and maybe 90% of the time he is somewhere I can’t reach him, and then he appears I can speak to him normally and then he slips through my fingers. The consultant says he could come back but there is no knowing. 2 weeks ago he as started walking again with the help of the physios they work with him daily.

I read what is going on on the forum while I have a coffee. I hope at some point I will be back properly.

Hope your doing well.

Take good care

Hi, I'm so sorry about your husband , that must be very sad and worrying for you😥I hope his condition improves soon🤞

Lately I have been reading the posts here( so many new people!😮) but I haven't replied to any, bit like yourself.

I have got some health issues now unfortunately, not related to my ❤which is doing it's job with the new valve(nearly 2 years since AVR) ,so I'm not 100% , thanks for asking.

You too take care!

Oh I am so sorry to read your struggling with your health. I hope that things improve for you quickly.I have decided to rejoin the gym! If I can get John home I need to get stronger! I have started Aquafit and am going to try Tai Chi, my sons tell me I need to strengthen my core😩

Please take good care and I will be thinking of you, hoping your getting better.

Thank you Pauline! 😍Good for you for doing all those activities! 👏 I try to do yoga daily, it's all I can manage! Plus daily walk to shops in city centre...trying to avoid buses now the masks are not compulsory.

My thoughts are with you and John. 💓

I love some quizzes; Mastermind and University Challenge are my favourites too. I used to watch Only Connect but I’d be lucky if I got a couple of answers correct. Sadly I don’t think I’ll have time for your quiz this weekend Michael as I love watching the rugby union on TV and am packing for my first holiday since my heart attack. I hope it doesn’t snow next week.

Have a great holiday, where are you off to?

I’m back from sunny Sherwood Forest. Five days at Centerparcs I’ve always wanted to go but could never afford it. It was always cheaper to take the kids and grandkids to the South of France. First real break since my HA three years ago. I had a very physically challenging time but overall enjoyable experience. I’m shattered now. How did the quiz go?

Lezzers in reply to Maisie2014

Glad to hear you had a good if challenging time I've never been to Centre PARC's but Sherwood Forest itself is just great, is the big tree that's held up with crutches still there? I missed the quiz, I've been having a lot of difficulty getting on the site & with the format so not been around much

Maisie2014 profile image
Maisie2014 in reply to Lezzers

I didn’t notice a tree like that. I don’t find this site as user friendly as it used to be so I’m not on it as much myself these days.

Lezzers profile image
Lezzers in reply to Maisie2014

You would have noticed the tree if it's still there's, it's a big tourist attraction. Interesting to know you don't find the site user friendly anymore, I put up a post recently about the changes & it seemed only myself and 1 other member had the changed site!

The Major Oak

A big tree!

That's the one, though I thought it had more crutches than that. Is it still there?

Hi MichaelJH, I would love to join the quiz! I may end up with nil points, but would definitely have a go. Thanks for organising, very kind of you. Judi

Hi MichaelJH,a lovely photo, is this where you live? Beautiful, lucky you!

I'm not sure if I will participate, with the brain a bit foggy at the moment due to the time of the year, the dire situation re; Ukraine and some of my health problems which are worrying me.

Not my old ticker, that seems to do it's job well now nearly 2 years since AVR. 👌👏

I love University Challenge, it's the only quiz I watch, oh, and Mastermind sometimes.

Love quizzes but the time isn't possible. How about giving it say an hour or two or until some time in the evening then taking al ist of all those who get it all right then doing a lucky dip of names. That would work better for anyone who has slow internet or may be at work.

How do we find the quiz? Probably too late now as I Only just saw this.
