  1. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=7973&sectionId=1 7 for Friday. Got the Buddha, President and... Australian sports questions wrong.
  2. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=7953&sectionId=1 8 oota 10 for Wednesday. Guessed Love Child and Barbados (educated guess) right and Clint and the photographer wrong.
  3. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=7943&sectionId=1 5 for Tuesday. Even guessed one of the three Australian questions right.
  4. Must be time for John James to start making noises about the state of the roofs at Ibrox.
  5. NJ, our scores are mid-table/relegation fodder in the big league. We're going straight back down next season. How the hell do you 'up your game' in Aussie quizzes? What books and newspapers can you read? Is it worth emigrating to the Antipodes for a better shot at glory?
  6. Nah, Big Dave is too clever for the Court of Session, so he is. He'll convince them that he has no in control over his family trusts but, miraculously, a few months from now, he'll spring to the rescue. Just you wait and see, big man. Or not.
  7. Aye, but apart from volcanoes, geothermal vents and Björk...
  8. 7 for Friday. Got the Oz sports question wrong again. They must be running out of people by now - how many of the b*****ds are there?
  9. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=7913&sectionId=1 Promotion hopes blown with 4 out of 10 for Thursday. Knew 3 (Arfer C Clarke, contrabassoon and the deputy PM). Guessed 1 out of 7 right.
  10. And the safe word for Ted Rogers was? FFS the clue was in plain sight. His name was an accusation.
  11. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=7903&sectionId=1 On a roll this week. 8 out of 10 for Wednesday. Got the airport and the TV series wrong and the author was a bit of a toss-up between 2. BTW I was surprised when Da Vinci didn't appear in the list of painters - had to actually think about dobs and dods for a change. ETA: just realised there were no Oz sports questions today. More of this please. Or less of that.
  12. 7 out of 10 for Tuesday. Didn't know TV series, Rotuma or the non-soluble vitamin. Guessed at Fajans and Soddy and got it right!
  13. For those who can't handle the pressure of the Scotland match, http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=7883&sectionId=1 7 out of 10 for Monday. Didn't know 4 and only guessed one of them, pato, right. Got the Australian sports question wrong. Of course.
  14. Or the fact that Rangers released him for peanuts, probably without a sell-on cause, and, hey... guess what... he's actually no too bad.
  15. Knew 1 (supercilious), guessed at 9. A resounding 2 out of 10 to finish the week! http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=7873&sectionId=1
  16. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/mind-games/quiz?quizId=7863&sectionId=1 5 out of 10 for Thursday. A strange list of 'celebrity' chefs. Big down under? Are these quiz questions getting more obscure each week? I only knew 3 for certain - Tolkien, the muscle and the 70s hit.
  17. Totally unexpected 8/10 for Wednesday. 6 guesses and 4 of them right. Only really knew Canada, Ozymandias, salchipapas and Bond. Relegation might not be so certain now - but it's the hope that gets you.
