5/10 guesswork, but I got a bit of a flavour for the later ones from the first few.

6/10

I was waiting for Shadouf

I'd have known that one, but maybe not really a British thing, more the opulent and hilly east.

I have noticed that the otherwise little seen word 'merkin' is of sniggering amusement to some parties on here.

That was one of Dubya Bush's favourites wasn't it...he was always referring to 'my fellow merkins'...

4/10. My guessing is about as good as on the weekly quiz

 

[Slioch]

4/10. Pure guesswork.

4/10 but one of those was when the page was taking ages to load so I tapped randomly and the quiz took it as an answer . So 3/10 which is what you'd expect by chance!
