Fingers crossed everyone, let’s see a name we know!

Good luck!

Member
Tracy

Another easy one for the last day.

Member
Stuart

Let’s wait for the answer Tracy 😁

Member
Tracy

An easy one today

Member
Stuart

We haven’t had the answer yet 🤣😂

The answer is going to depend on what source provided the answer…..

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

You are right, I was looking for Curry, but it wasn’t an option. There’s nothing like a hot curry at the seaside, served in a paper bag with salt and vinegar… Ok, that might be a bridge too far, I come over a bit queasy 🤣

Member
Stuart

I’d like to see you eating curry sauce with your fingers 😜

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

Would you now? 🤣🤣

Member

When you search, one colour does come up indicating a safe beach, but all the ones I know that are safe and monitored by lifeguards fly a red and yellow flag.

Member
Stuart

I sense controversy when the answer is revealed tomorrow 😒

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

Ok, don’t judge me, but I am one of the 6 people in the world who still watch Home And Away and they always put up red and yellow flags, I’ve never seen the other colours mentioned.

Please don’t tell me I can’t trust TV any more. 😭😩😭

Next you will tell me Scott and Charlene never really married! Yes, I was the last person left who still watched Neighbours before it was axed.

Stop judging me ! 🙈🥸

Member
Hilde

Alison, I am still watching Neighbours on Amazon Prime Video because I don’t watch it every day I am terribly behind with it and still catching up. I am still watching season 24 LOL

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

So there were 2 of us! They should have kept Neighbours going now I know they doubled their audience, 😂

Member
Meera

Me too I watched Neighbours right to the end on Channel 5 then Amazon. And now I’m watching the episodes from the beginning. So they could have trippled their audience. Lol.

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

Wow! If we 3 couldn’t keep it going, then what chance did it have!

I recently watched Prisoner: Cell Block H from begining to end. Wow, this has become an Australian TV support group! 😂

Member
Hilde

In my country there are 3 colours of flags used at the sea for swimming. There’s a yellow one which means you can go in but you can’t use inflatables. The other ones are green and red. There’s no black flag or purple flag. Why is yellow not in this list or do they not use yellow in the UK?

Member
Tracy

I looked it up, and it said Red and Yellow in some places and Green in others, so I put both answers and where they were for. I have never seen a UK beach with lifeguards on it anyway. But I think I will still only get one point.

Member
Hilde

Tracy there’s a beach not too far from me (30 min bus ride) and I’ve never see any lifeguards either though loads of people go swim there. It does have a daily sign indicating that day’s safety for swimming.

Member
Stuart

27th July

Oh dear none of them are correct if you take account of the information provided

Member
purplevamp

I right clicked the image and searched with Google Lens. The answer comes up but it doesn’t if you just Google the words. Hope this helps.

Member
Stuart

I have put an answer but I still don’t believe it is correct with the additional information provided within the question

Member
Jackie

The correct answer (for the UK) isn’t there anyway. Who writes these questions, and where do they live?

Member
Stuart

Exactly.

It’s Red and Yellow if Lifeguards are present.

If the answer is green why put the text about Lifeguards been present it causes confusion and makes the answer green incorrect as Lifeguards don’t need to be present if its a green flag

“Me – Do crickets ‘buzz’

AI – No, crickets do not buzz; they chirp.

Insects That Actually Buzz
Bees and Wasps: They buzz by rapidly flapping their wings.
Flies and Mosquitoes: Their high-speed wing beats vibrate the surrounding air.
Cicadas: They vibrate a drum-like organ called a tymbal, producing a loud buzzing or clicking drone.”

Apparently bees, wasps and mosquitos – the other 3 options – do buzz. 🤣🤣

Member
Hilde

I put mosquitos as crickets do not buzz seriously..

Member
DivitLad

unless they are right next to you , you don’t hear them, the summer evening gave it away for me and the movies you’d watch and hear the crickets in evening and night time scenes

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

It depends on which part of the question speaks to you, but in a quiz the whole question should.

If I said “will guard your home through the night and purrs when you stroke it”?

Dog? Cat? No! The correct answer is rabbit, they do what is called teeth purring when you stroke them and they stamp their feet at unfamiliar noises. 🤣

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

That was supposed to say “which pet will guard your home through the night and purrs when you stroke it”? But I ran out of time to edit.

Member
Aileen

If you’ve ever had a mosquito in your bedroom, you’ll know that they make a buzzing noise!! As I represent the Hilton hotel to mozzies, that was my answer!!!

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

I was stuck between bee and mosquito, but it was the word gentle that pushed me towards bee, I would have been happy with either answer, but instead we have those famous buzzing crickets(!) 🤔🙄

Member
June

18th me too put bee crickets make chirping noise

Member
Lostkiwi

18th I put bee. A cricket does not make ‘a gentle buzzing sound’! I think their sound is described as a chirp?

Member
Julie

I did too

Member
Tracy

Me too. I didn’t think crickets make a gentle buzzing noise.

Member
Stuart

Oh yes the famous buzzing cricket 🤣😂

Can’t believe this answer. I think they describe crickets sound as a ‘chirp’

Member
krispii

That’s a me too – bees gently buzz, crickets chirp

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

I am not sure about today’s (18) answer, but I think that the words “gentle buzzing sound” are the clue.

Member
Sally

First one of this quiz I’ve had to look up… I guess I’m not a big fan of salad, although cheese is a different matter!

Member
Tracy

I am the same Sally. I love mozzarella, especially in those bites that are perfect for dunking into dips 🙂 🙂

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

It doesn’t matter how many times I tell myself that you can’t click A, B, C & D, I still try to do it. It’s like my brain says “Hello? Finger? You’re doing it again, when will you lean? Yet my finger says “Look, I’m the only one around here doing actual physical labour, so shut up!” 🤣🤣

Member
Julie

I do it too 🫤😳

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

Thank you Julie, I’m so glad I’m not the only person to have arguments with their own fingers. Phew! 🤣

Member
Stuart

Surely todays (4th) really depends where your taking your summer holiday 🤣😂

Member
Brian

For day 1 I just put C. Today I see the answer is C) June. It would really help if you put an example of the format you are wanting as there is no close bracket on the actual picture with the question. Or is it as long as 1 of the bits is there it is classed as correct?

Member
Tracy

Either format would work just so long as the answer is the right one.

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

It doesn’t matter as long as it is clear you chose the correct answer. They have to put both so the people who just wrote “June” know they were right too.

Member
Sally

Yes I agree with Tracy and Allison (surprise surprise! 😁) – as far as I know Daniel admirably checks all the answers manually, it’s not some computer thing looking at them so you don’t have to get the format in some specific condition for it to be considered correct 👍

Member
Brian

Thanks👍

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

You might agree with me, but you don’t know how to spell my name Sallly 🤣 Don’t worry, I’ve been called much worse.

Member
Sally

Oh dear 😳 I do apologise Alison (it did it that time too, but I proofread properly!) – I was using the speech to text and it always seems to spell it that way no matter how many times I’ve used the correct name on this forum and you would think it would get to grips with it lol; no excuse though, I almost always double check and obviously failed miserably this time… I do hope you’ll forgive me?! 🙇🏻‍♀️😉

Member
Tracy

I am the same as Alison; I even have family members misspell my name. 🙂 🙂

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

With an E Tracy? My mum’s friend is Tracy, at one time I thought it was with an E, so I did spell it wrong for a while, now I check previous cards they sent me to make sure I write them in my book correctly. What a load of faff!

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

I’m just joking with you, if it makes it easier, spell my name with 2 L’s, I really don’t mind, I only did it so I could put 3 L’s in your name. 🤣.

When I was younger more than not, my birthday cards would be Allison, I wouldn’t mind, some were from my own family! 🤨

My dad uses my nickname in cards, he chose my nickname, he is the only person who calls me it, yet he spells it wrong every time! 😵‍💫

Member
Sally

Hahaha I never even noticed the extra L in my name; very cleverly done but sadly too subtle for my tiny brain to catch on until you said it, but I love it 🤣 well done 👌😜 I’ve always kind of liked my name because it seems to be in the general consciousness enough that I don’t often have to spell it out (my last name is a different matter entirely which I have to spell out every single time & yet commonly mistaken even after I’ve just said it, so I do actually sympathise massively with your problem!), but… Read more »

Member
Alison - The One & Only!

Aside from the spelling of my name, I rarely come across other Alison’s, similar to you, it’s a well known name, but not common, or popular. All those old names have come right back into fashion, Jack, Archie, Ben, Joshua to name a few. I don’t know you, but there are no rule books when it comes to raising children, so you say you were a crap mother, but you were his mother! It sounds like he is doing well for himself, my hubby has a barrister in the family and she is living in the Caymen Islands, so it… Read more »
