but it's fun thing to do each week like, so just do it, and beat me ;-)

[~*~Leanne~*~]

when does the quiz get posted as id love to do it

[Kim]

Hi guys, sorry for the delay of this weeks' quiz. Vicky's internet is working very poorly at the moment, if at all so I will be in charge of this weeks quiz.

My apologies to Lea for this, but Vicky has informed me that you selected catchphrases as the category. I will need you to select a second choice as I don't know anything about catchprases.

[CrazyLea]

:p okey dokey. I'll go for soap instead then xx

[Kim]

Okay, I'll have it up tomorrow then.

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

I am kind of back but just taking things slow at the moment i dont want to push it to much

[Kim]

Due to the non-existence of the petz money, together with the lack of entries, Vicky and I have decided to stop doing these quizzes. Barely anyone entered while there was petz money available, let alone now there isn't. They take too long to produce for only the odd few people to enter.

Could a mod please close this.
