I had a bit of help from my stepson this morning….staying with me for the weekend, before he heads back to Bourke this afternoon….like you I do not get to see him as often as I would like (although he is my stepson, we have an amazing relationship, and I love him with all my heart)
So happy to hear that....he's obviously a special lad. Hope he has a safe trip back, and that you both catch up again very soon.😍

I’ll bet I’m the only one to get Q2 wrong! I knew the answer, of course, but my index finger had decided to stuff me up. 😆 All my other wrong answers were genuine.

Not a good day today. I misread 'elephant bells' as being 'elephant balls'. Wouldn't want a pair of them (or anything) hanging from my ears!
I wouldn't consider earrings being a "garment".
 
What is the most famous symphony song

Beethoven: Symphony No.
5. Perhaps the most famous, if not the greatest, symphony of all time. It is the first symphony that takes aim with its first notes at its very last notes, pushing the listener ever forward, sometimes relentlessly and sometimes gently on to the mighty C major ending.

Also used during the second World War

A symbol of victory
in World War Two.During the Second World War the Allied forces took to using the letter V as a symbol of resistance and the drive to victory. As it so happens, the Morse code of the letter V (short-short-short-long) is like that of the opening to Beethoven's Fifth Symphony.

😯Fascinating info. I knew it was the V for victory code but not the significance of the extreme notes. I have been sorting and tossing out my old DVDs last week. I kept "Amadeus" and tossed out "Beethoven's Fifth." It's why I picked the Fifth in the quiz. 🙄And how the DVD got its revenge.

You'd start a new craze. On 2nd thought, maybe refrain. Think of the increase of poachers - both meanings I guess.

question *: interesting I got the answer as 5th Symphony mostly with some saying 9th (but less entries) and then the 8th got quite a few mentions so I guess it depends on your perspective. I like them all so hey lets have a barney about which is the greatest.

Sounds like a good idea as long as there, is a general refrain from saying his/ "Beethoven's last movement was shit?"
