This was very close and you all did very well.
The winner is GhoGho with 20 correct!!!!!! Well done. I am not sure what the prize will be but I am sure Ed will advise me at some stage.
Congrats also to cmlean and Ed for 16 correct.
Followed very closely by Julian on 14 and Southernman on 13.
I hope you all had a bit of fun.
For the time being this is the last of this sort of quiz. I will be doing more but none along these lines at the moment.

Well since it was just for fun I saw no problem with giving a couple of clues. Most of you got a couple but only on the ones you attempted.
I am glad you enjoyed it. I think a lot of us are having fun with T-Ks quiz too.

Must admit to a certain amount of trepidation... I wasn't sure that anyone would enter. I know you all used to enjoy the quizzes by Lemon but since he has not been around for a while I thought I might have a go at them. If it wasn't for the support of guys like you I would have probably given up. I am just so pleased that you enjoy them.... it means a lot to me.
