    Flo has now entered

    Provisionally Quiz 6 will close at midnight Sunday 28th Oct BUT if anyone would like to enter and needs more time I can easily extend it it a short while, either post here or pm me if you require an extension

    Edit:
    I noticed I posted Go Team Flo earlier.

    So in the interest of fair play and in the spirit of the DWD quiz I must add the following.

    Go Team Sparkles.
    Go Team Boss Lady
    Go Team (insert your favourite team name here)
