ha ha ha ha...brilliant!! Bet a few would get caught out here. A bit like not reading flat pack instructions properly. Enjoy your Sunday.
Aren't flatpack instructions written in chinese??
You have a good Sunday too Ruth. x
Teachers have been nailing students for years with that one! Human nature is something I never tire of observing...

Re Question 13 (unlucky for some): Write out a hundred times "around," not "aroudn" as written.
I love this so much!! That's awesome. Thank gawd I read the whole list first. LOL
[just checking the Over 50 blogroll member list today to make sure everything is still current. Happy Sunday]
I had a teacher pull this truck one time. She said follow the directions completely before taking the test. The directions were to put your name in the top right corner and turn it back in.
Most of us failed! *LOL*
Psst Bee, so did I! :(
Well spotted dumdad you passed the test! ;)
Thanks hootin'anni, glad you enjoyed it. :)
Akelamalu-Please allow me to apologize for my sons' rude comments when you visited his blog. He is extremely opinionated and works in an industry where impolite behavior is apparently common. He was not brought up that way, and I have already written him a response I bet he won't have the guts to post. So sorry.
Crazy working mom
Those darn teachers eh! :)
buffalodickdy
I'm not sure who your son is honey? I haven't noticed a rude response anywhere I frequent, but thankyou for taking the time and trouble to apologise - you are a true gentleman. :)
Ake- Space cadet R(bouncybouncy.blogspot.com) If he didn't live 600 miles away, I'd kick his ass right now!
buffalodickdy
Ah I remember now. I just popped over to take a look and resisted the urge to shove a rocket up his A$$. I'll leave that to you - thanks honey. :)
