My late BF and I used to watch the Big Fat Quiz of the Year on NYE and try to win but I see it’s on Boxing Day this year

I’m only so-so on these, rubbish at dates for start

Well that was yesterday’s rabbit hole

Predictably the only section I have completed is 12, the medical eponyms, with a little help from Mr Google

The last lines of books are driving me nuts, got a few straight off, and some of the rest are tantalising me

The travel one was bit hit or miss for me. I'm ashamed to say I only got 7/20 :oops: :oops:. Still have only glanced at the King William ... don't think I will win prizes there.

I am good at some quizzes- just not these :lol:.
