Title: Re: Pic(s) n Mix. Something for the weekend. Post by: Chris from Nailsea on February 25, 2011, 22:47:53 Note to 'dayranger57' - I moved your post to our moderators area (that is, out of public view) temporarily: the generally accepted rule in these quiz topics is that only one 'guess' per member is allowed for the first 24 hours.
To be fair, bignosemac did state that, in his original post: it's to avoid spoiling the fun for others - at least to start with! Chris from Nailsea ;) Title: Re: Pic(s) n Mix.
