I WAS 9 for 9, excited, hopeful. Question 10 though... No idea. Guessed wrong. Hopes dashed.
9/10

I got 5. Have not been absorbing details of news except niche areas of my interest for a while now. Charles and Camilla married for 20 years? Shows what I know 😂

[–] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 points 4 months ago

I got that one right, but also WHAT. HOW?

7/10 - OK with a couple of guesses (both wrong)

[–] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago

7/10 - apparently I'm paying more attention than I thought since I've had a bit of free time this week.

[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Given my previous performance in these quizes I'm going to guess I'll get 3/10. I will report back on the actual outcome shortly.

[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 4 points 4 months ago

Gosh, actually got 8/10. That was unexpected.

[–] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago

8/10 not bloody bad at all

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago

Exactly the same as you. Question 10 also stumped me.

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago

6/10 haha I have not been paying attention lol

[–] anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago

10/10! I have never got a full score in one of these before! Must have been paying better-than-usual attention to the news lately
