Weekly Bonus Question
Welcome to the Weekly Bonus Question.
Each week the news quiz 7 days 7 questions will offer an answer. You are invited to suggest what the question might have been.
Suggestions should be sent using the COMMENTS BOX IN THIS ENTRY. Any answers submitted using the "Send us a letter" form on the right will be summarily ignored.
And since nobody likes a smart alec, kudos will be deducted for predictability in your suggestions.
This week's answer is CHEESE AND BISCUITS AND MALTESERS.
UPDATE 1557 GMT: The correct question is how does the world's oldest dog - a Beagle cross named Lulu, 147 in dog years - end her meals with?
Of your woefully and deliberately wrong suggestions, we liked:
- Ben's In 1 Corinthians 13 what was Jesus' reserve list?
- Grace's What ingredients are needed to make an EPIC cheesecake?
- MorningGlories' What new additions to the vending machine caused a stampede among IT staffers?
- dom's Fed up with all the bad publicity, what has Bob Geldof re-named his children?
- potholes_in_my_lawn's What did I "cook" my wife for Valentine's Day?
- Yashi's What would make Ready Steady Cook worth watching?
- slimbo's What is the name of the sequel to Ian Dury's biopic Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll?
- FilboidStudge's Given the current recession, what are now the new first, second, and third wedding anniversary gifts?
- And TheCoachman's You know an Oscar acceptance speech is coming to an end when the winner gets around to thanking what?
Thanks to all who entered.
