I'm a Charlton fan and missed the opportunity of getting one right, take that with a large pinch of salt.

I'm happy if I get one answer right, think I got two the other day, highlight of my Betfair quiz career.

Thanks to all you guys who take the time to compose these type of quizzes, they get your mind moving plus a bit of lateral thinking comes in handy, well done, better than looking at the telly all afternoon.

Always find it good to walk away from the quiz if getting nowhere, when I come back I seem to get an answer.

Might get round to doing one myself.

Have a good evening everyone.
