30 Mar 17 - 05:31 AM (#3847514) Subject: BS: Quiz answers - Nigel's From: Nigel Parsons This is a new page for answers to my various quizzes, as the previous one was targeted with spam. I'll try to start each set of answers with a link to the original thread. Also I'll try to leave a 'spoiler' space before the answers in case anyone hasn't seen the original quiz. Feel free to re-use any of my quizzes, either on a not-for-profit basis, or for a good cause. While I try to avoid giving answers in the original quiz thread I'm happy to discuss answers here. This includes for anyone who can't understand any tortuous, or weird links. Cheers Nigel |
