NAME THAT TUNE

    If you’re old like me then you may remember the tv show (I watched it as a kid in the 80s).

    You will listen to 3 second clips of songs and will be awarded points for knowing the title, the artist and bonus points for knowing both. I will also give a reduced amount of points if you have the song/artist not entirely correct but near enough.

    I will link to a YouTube video which will contain all the tunes and you will have 30 mins to PM the answers to me. NO ALEXA or SIRI PLEASE (or any other thingy I don’t know about). So, when you are ready to dedicate 30 minutes just PM me and I will send you the link. Game open till tomorrow lunchtime/afternoon.

    Be gentle with me, it’s my first time hosting ;)

    Post below if you’re interested in playing and we can then agree a time to start.

    Or maybe each of us could pm you when we’re available either tonight or tomorrow, you pm back the link to the music and we have half an hour to send back our answers. So we could all just play when it suits us individually. Just a thought :)

    That’s a really good idea actually and will give me more time to sort through the points.

    PM me whenever and you’ll have 30 mins to reply to my PM with YouTube link.

    Don’t give me evil ideas.

    FYI there are a good few songs so be ready to use all of your 30 mins rather than sending the PM then heading off to make tea. Make the tea first!
