Good morning sue and all Wilsonettes, another brilliant Trivial Fun, it certainly challenges my old grey cells (memory), I only got 6 correct today but I really do enjoy them.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi Sue,
7 correct, and a few almost there. I’m pleased I got Pearl Harbour right, we visited there when in Hawaii in 1981. I’d no idea that France was involved in building the Panama Canal so that’s something I’ve learned today.
It is our wedding anniversary so we are going out for Sunday lunch.

Morning Sue thank you another school day did'nt do to well today. Take care all Kitty.

1,2,4,6,9,12,13,14,16,17, 20. 11 correct today. 🙂
A few for you, Sue.
1.How many stars are on the flag of Venezuela?
2.Julia Robert’s only Oscar Award was for which film?
3.What is the International vehicle registration code for Switzerland?
4.Which birds are often called 'sea parrots'?
5.What is a group of pandas called?
Hi Liz, I only know two of them today, Erin Brockovich for no. 2 and the collective noun for pandas is an "embarrassment" (which I just don't think is what they should be called, maybe a "cuteness" if I had my way! LOL) I will take a guess at the others, maybe six stars on the flag of Venezuela, For the car reg of Switzerland it is probably not something so obvious as SW or SZ, how about CS? I was thinking C for cantons? The sea parrots might be Frigate birds? Great questions! I haven't done very well with them lately, but at least I will learn something which I love! Thanks, again!
Only 7 today. X
