‘Alexa play Genie in a Bottle by Quiz-tina Aguilera’
Another Friday lunchtime, another quiz. The weeks continue to come around at a rate of knots and before you know it we’re halfway through October.
I’m not sure we’re quite at big coat weather yet, but it’s certainly no longer t-shirt weather. The jumpers and fleeces are back on.
And Halloween plans are in progress for many of you I’m sure. Just two weeks until the spooky weekend, and the yearly trial/treat of having to choose a costume for whatever party or event you’re attending.
Or alternatively you could just choose to sack it all off, and take a very Jim Halpert approach to Halloween.
Anyway, that’s a future you problem. For now, quiz to your heart’s content.
