Audaces Fortuna Juvat Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Knew six and guessed four for a rather sweet 9/10, but I still got an Aussie question wrong - the second one - some celebrity guff. That means I guessed the sport correctly but I can't even remember what my answer was as I am still employing the "hit an answer quickly" technique. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That works quite well, in my experience. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie S Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 8/10 for Tuesday. Knew 5 for sure (mythology, statue, botanist, layer of atmosphere and director), so happy with that. Managed to guess Aussie reality tv winner, but got the Aussie sports question wrong again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
