For those of you anxiously waiting to help out in my annual Custer quiz, I have sad news. There won't be one this year. Apparently, this is due to a dwindling number of entries. Some of you may remember that, a couple of years ago, I triumphantly announced that I'd secured third place and picked up a cheque for twenty dollars.
My most recent newsletter announced that, two years ago, only three people entered.....
-
I supose as the years go by, there are not many of you left still living from that battle.
-
Har. Har.
Just as a matter of interest, Diane, how far are you from Montana?

Okay, okay, I'll set the quiz this year.
-
Oh, joy! The man who thinks Custer's second in command was called Roobarb is going to set the quiz.

Who won?

Har. Har.
Just as a matter of interest, Diane, how far are you from Montana?
I just googled it - from our house to Billings, Montana is 1,299 KM
-
I'll meet you in Billings after you drop off the kids for swimming.
Actually, you can't be far from the Northern Montana border.

How disappointing.

(Or should that be "How disappointing?")question (so question mark should be outside the speech marks) ???
Nope! It should be:

Actually, it should be:

It's right, but unfortunately you got my gender wrong... (http://www.easyfreesmileys.com/smileys/free-rolleye-smileys-323.gif) (http://www.easyfreesmileys.com/Free-Sad-Smileys/)

Ar - Oi thought you 'ad an 'idden 'gender.
-
I'm sorry to say this but...Mince is right
I think Mince has hijacked Diamond Lil...
-
So does Mince getting your gender wrong invalidate his answer? I hope so.
-
Or should that be "How disappointing?"?
I thought Mince would have jumped in by now but here goes with my understanding of it all...
Punctuation at the end of a sentence goes inside the quotes. (the whole sentence is being quoted)
The final question mark relates to that sentence which just happens to include a quote.
Now let's wait for Mince to appear to say I'm talking $%^& 8)
-
Me & Dimond Lil is write, sew their.
-
Me & Dimond Lil is write, sew their.
Whatever...!
-
Me & Dimond Lil is write, sew their.
Gosh, it's like having Peter back. ..0

Peter is apparently alive and well and beating everyone in the trivia quiz.
