I have just E-Mailed the Christmas Quiz for this year to those staff that want it. Here it is for Edugeekers:

 

Christmas Quiz 2018.docx

 

I think there might be some (partial) repitition in some of the questions when compared with previous years (compiled in a hurry)

 

I will post the answers when I send them out to our staff, on the last day of term.

Is number 6 close enough for me to sue? :p

 

A cursory glance gets me:

2: Green Mile

8: Forty Winks

11: Nowhere To Run

12: Wide Awake

14: Missing Link

15: Nudist Colony

23: Blanket

28: Hole In The Heart

30: Anyone For Tennis

33: Made In Reverse (?)

39: Fill In The Gap

47: Half A Crown

48: In The Way

 

And I have no clue about London :p

@Garacesh:

 

2: Correct

8: Correct

11: Correct

12: Correct

14: Correct

15: Correct

23: Correct

28: Not what I have, but could be an alternative answer, I guess?

30: Correct

33: Incorrect.

39: You have 'the singular' form. The answer is in the plural, but you are right.

47: Correct

48: Not quite.

 

The 'London' clues work differently. Perhaps think of the images as prompts for syllables in the solutions.

Yeah wasn't entirely sure about 33, but I did have an answer of some description, so was worth a shot :p

As for 39, yeah, I see what you're going for :D

May I suggest for

#10: Paperweight ?

#16: The Whole 9 yards

#20: Acid test

#21: The jig is up

#27: Abominable

#35: Divide and conquer (not sure a chestnut is properly a conker, but hey)

#42: Friends.Romans,Countrymen

#56: Peace be with you

 

I have about half of the London ones, but I think for #20 the second "Emoji" should be more like thislatest?cb=20170319200928

Cheers Dave, I look forward to the answers as I have sent this to my wife for her office with the proviso that I don't have the answers. I hope no-one there complains if I never send them :smokin:

As reassurance to anyone who has started this year's little offering, the answeers will be posted in this tread on Friday (21st)
