BBC Quiz of the Week

Posted on July 17, 2009 by archiearchive FCD

I spent a part of the week in the company of some mining company people. No, not gold mining. Uranium mining.

This will be the next big thing here in a National Park.

WRONG!

I cannot march and carry banners but I do have a blog and a keyboard. Well, I do have until I overstep the mark.

Watch this space.

So how will you go in this week’s BBC News Quiz of the Week.

Last week there was no crown won while the Gitwizard and the Lady Eagle each scored 1/7 to share the hat.

This week I knew all the answers and  I got 4/7  – - -

Good luck

    I should’ve gone with the genie too. It seemed logical to me.

    I don’t know my “-illions” very well, it seems … whatever it is, it’s an obscene number!

    Full of confidence I stepped up to the plate, ate my breakfast and plunged in – my brain feeling on fire.

    3/7

    Next time I’ll try porridge ……….

    I seem to be holding steady at 3. Partly because I remember the moon landing from when it happened. I hadn’t pad attention to any of the anniversary hype.
