Just one week to go now…
Over halfway through our 12 Days of Quizmas and we’re not letting up in our quizzing output in the build up to the big day, like busy quizzing elves.
Little-known secret, but I’ve not actually purchased a single Christmas present for my family. No, this year I’m gifting each of my family members 25 questions of general knowledge, entertainment and sport, each with a picture round.
Can’t wait to see what scores they get!
Anyway this is the first of three Quizmas offerings from quizmaster Simon Bland. The level of quizzing talent is quite something here at JOE, a real golden generation.
Enjoy!
