Evenin' all and we start off on a sad note!! Yes my counter is messed up - It's sad to log in and see it's saying my journal has only be read 17 times since last year 
It's been read more than that I swear!! 
Anyhoo enough of my misery and onto more fun things!! You'll all be glad to know I have bananas :-) My team leader went to Tesco's at lunchtime and asked if there was anything I want *big grin* I feel complete now!!
So I promised you a quiz!! I think I might make this a weekly feature - something different and something fun. I have a pub quiz book that I used to use when I was quiz master in a chat on a Friday night but I don't go there anymore!! So let's see if this goes down well and I'll think about it!! Have a go - even if it's just for fun and email me your answers. I'll let you know how you've done as soon as I've got the answer sheet..............(I have a feelin' Pauline thought I was gonna have a go so I suppose I better LOL........) I won't cheat reading your answers - honest :-)

unlike wobbly below I hate these I feel really stupid and my excuse is they are all in Enghland..... ;-)
Sooooo not good at this kind of thing, lol!!
I did get No. 19 though, it's not far from here :o)
Sorry about your counter, someone else - was it Jeannette? - had a problem with their counter the other day. If you visit the 'here to help' journal, I think there's a way to get your real number back :o) :o) :o)

Your counter joined mine! I agree it is sad because all those hits represent visits from our friends. I have lost over 38,000 hits and that hurts! I cannot understand why aol cannot manage a little thing like counters. We pay them enough! Will have a go at the quiz later on.
HeHe! I got number 12, but as for the others, I`ll get Jim to do them, he`s the one whose good at cryptic things! Hoorah for the bananas...lol! :-)

The counter thing is down to little work going on at the AOL HQ - http://journals.aol.com/journalseditor/magicsmoke/entries/622
So now your counter could read into the millions!
The quiz from hell. Brain hurts, and that's after the first one. Is using a road atlas cheating?
I'm rubbish at this kind of thing....but I might have a go......it's a good idea though!
