Quiz Answers

I am back home now from the visit to Alberta and Utah, but as I go on Holiday tomorrow (Memorial Day), I am putting up the answers to last times quiz today.

Thanks to all those that had a go, and a special welcome to the 'newbie, quiz guys. Well I thought I could throw in a couple of stinkers, but you weren't all fooled. Pleased I beat you all on the link between the two gentlemen in the fuzzy pictures round though!

But, without further ado, the winner of the quiz for the 2nd time in a row was Rollo with 49! Brilliant score, and something for Will to watch out for, he now has competition!

Other scores were;

Rollo - 49

Woohoo! But I must give mad props to some of my colleagues for helping me out on a couple of questions.

Believe it or not I actually guessed the link between the guys after your clue about not being something the women would want. But after browsing a list of people who died age 54 I didn't see anyone that matched the pic. [cough]As the image is actually of someone called David Rambo, and not John Ritter at all, I'm not too bent out of shape for not getting it. Don't worry about it, it happens to the best of us.[/cough] :)

thanks for that, the image place I got it from had it down as John Ritter, so my apologies to everyone involved!
