Polly Posted September 14, 2014 Author Share Posted September 14, 2014 Dajen knows that the teddy loading is for laughs, if it's a strictly 'for fun' quiz then that absolutely fits the bill. Personally, I too know I would win every quiz if a: I could type fast enough and b: knew anything about steam engines, aeroplanes, pop music after 1970, international airports, Yorkshire, hire yards, etc. etc. ..................... :) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I know what you mean! I am hopeless on any questions about tv or films and pop music after the 60's is a total mysteryto me. Quizes are supposed to be fun and you can always throw the teddies back at whoever launched them. Arhur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arthur Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Now who would ask Arthur Ransome questions ? All the best Arthur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polly Posted September 14, 2014 Author Share Posted September 14, 2014 True MM but I have actually got a 1/1000000 chance of answering one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxwellian Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Jonzo. I hope you don't think that I was moaning about the software? just trying to give a little warning what could be expected. Less surprises mean less teddies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxwellian Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Ok with all of these new Quiz experts around I wish to take the opportunity to get my excuses in now. 1) SWMBO likes company on Sunday nights so sneaking off to PC is banned, very difficult to type quickly on iPad. 2) brain has blank moments when trying to recall even the simplest bits of information and spelling 3) I hate coming up with the questions for the next quiz. I don't think this will be a problem though with all of the quick fingered experts around now. I do however love taking part in the quiz and find them to be very good. The background chatter is the best part though. A big thank you goes to Jill for showing me the ropes when I first joined. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Personally, I think you should toss Haggis instead of teddies. You can eat a haggis afterwards I answered a music question recently at a quiz....mind you it did date back to the days of Mary Hopkins!

unclemike Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 happy with whatever night, if afloat usually have laptop and depending on phone signal can take part anyway mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Arthur Ransome questions are Ok especially if you are one of the priviliged few who have moored on WIld Cat Island in the Lake District. It is unlikely I am going to be able to attend any quiz on a regular basis for the foreseable future but when and if I am able to take part again any night would be fine with me.

Polly Posted September 14, 2014 Author Share Posted September 14, 2014 Arthur is referring to my avatar. we took the Whimp up to Coniston and had an awesome time sailing. The picture is of the landing place on Peel Island aka Wild Cat Island in Swallows and Amazons. A great bit of literary fun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CooWee Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 "The picture is of the landing place on Peel Island aka Wild Cat Island in Swallows and Amazons." Hello grudge holder Polly, that made me look at your avatar closer, I didn't realise where it was. We used to kayak there on occasion, stopping at Peel Island for lunch.
