Loaded Questions 10/27/22 - Geography
Get out of town!
Happy Thursday everyone! To kick off my 30s, I’ve been partying hardy for a week now. We’ve got a new season of LL very soon as well as the OQL International Culture Challenge, so got to get in shape for that. Also, if you a UK telly watcher, I hope you are watching the new ITV series “Riddiculous”, which includes questions I wrote! Very honoured to write questions for ITV, but my first and true love will always be Only Connect. I’ve got new questions on that show too!
If you want to see more questions written by me, I hope you’ll consider subscribing for the full Loaded Questions. Enjoy the set, and we’ve got more coming!
