14th April, 2022.


Right: I’m expecting my nephew, over, this afternoon.

Which means … ?   The flat’s going to be noisy!

Or possibly noisier!

At any rate?

There’s a distinct possibility of more videos!



~≈📹≈~

Let’s move on, shall we?

Yesterday’s Teaser saw Mum† and Debbi‡ putting in her answers: with both scoring five out of five.

The day also saw Trevor^ leaving us a message.

Sarah Michelle Gellar, born 14th April, 1977.

And a song …


Today’s questions will be answered in tomorrow’s Teaser.

The quizmaster’s decisions about scores are final.

Thank you for coming: have a good day.




*        Hello, Mum!

†        He’s at that sort of age, Debbi!   He’s taller than I am!   Oh, Trevor left you a footnote, yesterday: he’s suggesting that The Canterbury Tales are a good read.

‡        What on Earth saw 1984 and The Invisible Man banned, Trevor?   Oh, hang on, 1984’s pro-communist … !   I know Flowers for Algernon gets challenged, a lot.   Which is a shame: it’s gorgeous.
