I hope they are deleted soon.
Thanks for that - they've been removed now.

Well done on getting 30, Lenoir!

Thank you for deleting those obnoxious entries to the quiz, Anita. For the life of me, I cannot understand people who, no doubt, think they are being ‘funny’.

I got 23 which is very good for me! Some Lucky guesses in there. I have no comprehension of how anyone can get full marks!

I don't normally do the Monthly Quiz as I don't know anything about the school books / younger age books, so I'm always going to struggle on many of the questions.
I had a go this time and scored 17, which I'm happy enough with. I hadn't realised time taken was relevant though to the overall points total, and I took over 5 minutes as I was watching the World Cup game as I did it and kept pausing to watch attacks. :lol:

I’ve just scored 21 for January which was a bit of a surprise as a lot of the questions were about books I have not read and the illustrators of the books.

Well done Barnard - I managed 21 also.
I don't think it will be long before someone beats my score!

I'm happy with my score, I managed to beat Prince Harry. He must have had some spare time on his hands after all that writing he was doing.

I admit my defeat gracefully Lenoir. :D
I am also impressed by the speed in which you completed the quiz too - well done!

You probably thought as I did, Pete, that the questions were a little easier.
