How much excitement is it possible to have on one day … ?

The next 10 question sets are on 11th, 13th and 30th July: they’re about World Horse Day, “I Don’t Like Mondays” and the Beano.

Decisions about scores are final.

Thank you for coming: have a good day.




*        Hello, Mum!

        Hmmm … You might want to have a look at Rebellion’s site from your end, Debbi: I tried again, earlier: and the prices came up in US dollars.   I’ve gone back, just now … and everything was in Euros.   Wouldn’t you know it!?

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?

I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.

Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.

Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.

Thank you.

*   I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.

†   Your Facebook, X/Twitter, Blogger, Instagram, TikTok or LinkedIn profile are acceptable. I also like seeing folks webpages.
