Hi Muriel,
Finally I have time to visit the Café again !
Your quiz is excellent, and I am ashamed to say that I only got a few correct answers !!!
This is definitely a quiz where you have to "think outside the square" ... the questions are very clever and very tricky !
Of course, for me question 6 was "easy-peasy" !
So I shall go back to sleep now ! No
