Hi Brendan
I failed on question 1
Ellipsis! come on this is not every day stuff is it ??
I know what it means and have used it, but only in a Mathematical enviroment,not as part of general punctuation, (which in my case is ??).

See what I mean!

As Learner normally say's "Can't be arsed", but for the recoed; "I got 7/10. That was on a quicky type scan, although I do take issue with the "greengrocer's" question. When was the last time you saw a bleedin' greengrocers shop!

Sounds like everyone is getting different questions. Learner used a Thesaurus, but it wouldn't have been of any use in my set.

I didn't have ellipsis, but I did have one about would Shakespeare have used periods (Like Americans) instead of full stop (he did, and I got it wrong) but that's general knowledge, not punctuation

ah ! I take it back, it was in the answer.
