Ah Joan, I go to monthly quiz nights at our local social club, and some of these are regular quiz questions. So yes I did know some.
It's amazing though, often, we (as a team) know we've had questions before, but still can't remember the answers :oops:

Cor! That was fun, thank you Joan. I knew some but others were new to me - the purple finch for example. DD

The answers to a few of these were somewhere in the back of my mind but I only got one right and that was a guess. :shock:

I think that if you got at least one answer right, you have passed the exam in my opinion.
I hereby award you the Chit-Chat Certificate of Braininess.

I called Mr SW over as I thought they were so good. He said he'd seen them before. Still only got a few right though.
