Unfortunately I have Parkinson's, and therefore I cannot physically answer questions as fast as most, nor sit for hours. However I do enjoy writing rather obscure quizzes. Is there a place for the less competitive, yet creative quiz person. I feel that I am out of step with my present group, and perhaps not giving them the full death defying comptitiveness that they need. I could just go back to reading books!

All suggestions gratefully received.

Problem sorted, now it's on to the world.

I have a couple of ideas and I've written to you.

Thank you, all of you for the welcome.

Ah, Liz, welcome!

To everybody: I just "met" this strong, intelligent, responsive FT member recently via one of her fascinating quizzes. You're going to love her!

Thanks. My quizzes are not really that hard, I just try to pique interest with the information attached. Hopefully there is still enjoyment, no matter what the score.

Forsooth Madam,

Thou art most gracious indeed, t'would make a maiden blush. (It must be nigh on forty year or more since I was such a maiiden). Ah well.
