How sad am I?

This little BBC Quiz is one of the highlights of my week.

I almost never get a 7!

That's me thrilled until I get to sleep.....

It's a hard little quiz, even though it's not 'high brow'. 🤣

Not as good this week!

I got the last one wrong but I also made lucky guesses of two others, the football team one and the exam one but guessed correctly so really my score should be 4/7. 😩

Now, this is my worst score for a very long time.....

7/7 but again two lucky guesses! I didn’t know the Ed Sheeran one at all so it was a wild guess. The golf question I had an inkling but wasn’t 100% sure so guessed.

My husband has got them all right every single time but he is very up on sport as well as current affairs.

Feeling quite chuffed with my first attempt though must confess to a few lucky guesses! 😁

TanteRose · 04/10/2019 07:05

Oh dear - I'm getting worse each week

Soola · 04/10/2019 10:37

Easy this week except for the itv celebrity show which I had no idea about at all and my guess was incorrect!

TanteRose · 20/10/2019 04:03

Yay! Did better this week

MT2017 · 20/10/2019 15:02

5/7 here too and I guessed a couple which were right, so it could have been much worse . Didn't know the cricket one, the Russian one, the ancient one...

frankie001 · 20/10/2019 16:54

Got 6 this week. Best ever score, normally get 2

CakeNinja · 20/10/2019 17:19

2
I do watch and listen to the news pretty much every day - those 2 I got right we’re both guesses

I did it again!

Never mind I'm on the train, late for work, never mind the long, stressful and tedious day ahead of me, never mind the shitty weather or the long lists of domestic tasks ahead of me; this has set me up for the day

IndianaMoleWoman · 25/10/2019 06:21

Only a four for me today, which is probably my average score, but I got 6 last week and my second ever 7 the week before, so i was due a dip! It’s my little Friday morning ritual.
