Yay - Thank you!

Having been somewhere mid table all last year, it seems this year I am only interested in extremes. Top or bottom of table only so far :joy:

Some very lucky guesses this time especially Jaws which I was sure was wrong but was the only fish I could think of.

Also, quite like that I mistook Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin for Sonny and Cher - sure it happens all the time :rofl:

Finally, love that licking their balls is bad for golfers! :tongue:
