ME BLUSH - I could tell you a story or two 'me ol' mate'. ;D AND do not forget that I work in a Pub. Well, I thought if I put that it might make you more inclined to go look at them...

I say again - I will try to take a look and give them a go when I get the time to do so. Just now I am trying to find a way to grow some more flesh and skin on the ends of my fingers.

OK - stop pestering me. I have just done them all (and will be very tired when I go to pick up the grog for the pub in a few hours). Civil Registration - 8/10 Census - 9/10 Parish Registers 1 - 9/10 Parish Registers 2 - 9/10 Other Sources - 8/10 Wills - 10/10 UK Genealogy - 10/10 Genealogy 101 - 9/10 Bible Genealogy - 3/10 Christ's Genealogy - 4/15 You would think a Catholic might know a bit more about the last two. BUT I THINK I MIGHT HAVE JUST SCRAPED IN WITH A PASS MARK. ;D

Good job Ian! I just now did the two Bible ones and got 10/10 and 13/15. And I'm not Catholic.

S***t A**E - (Short Anne) - I do not know how anyone could score much better then me in the Bible and Christ Genealogy categories unless they have spent most of their life reading the Gospels and the Bible. I remember some of the names that were mentioned but ........ I cannot possibly see how the Quiz on Bible Genealogy could average 7/10. Christ's Genealogy - Average 9/15 I had never even heard mention of a grandfather - let alone his name.

Ye must remember, that on the FunTrivia site, many of the quizzes that might be regarded as 'specialised', are likely to have a higher average than you may expect. This is because in general, the only people likely to touch them, are people who have a reasonable insane knowledge of that subject matter to start with. That inflates the average past the expectations of mortal men such as you and I ;D

Sneaky buggers - this sort of thing should just not be allowed. BTW - I may be slow but I just noticed your new avatar showing good old Oz, the British flag and the (who knows how old) jumping kangaroo. ;D Well done cobber. Be careful, though, or people may think you are a 'bloody Aussie' just like me. ;D Seems to me that you are a very innovative type and your input is much appreciated. ( when i is available ;D) 'bout time you got off those 'L Plates" don't ya reckon.

"British flag" ? Well, as part of a larger effort. Don't forget those Southern Cross stars lurking under the Roo... Too bloody right. My sig line says "antipodes to everywhere". Technically it means "places diametrically opposite each other on the globe", but it only ever seems to used to describe Aus. Gee, I wonder why that is ? Ha ha Well, I appreciate your feedback. Not sure to what you refer though Not in relation to genealogy 'Tis my rightful place

If I read your question correctly then the answer is that your general input and technical help is of immense value.
Apart from that - 'nyuk, nyuk, nyuk'. ;D
