A Really, Really Diabolical Quiz


ANSWERS

What? You really thought there would be ANSWERS?

The evil Web Mistress rolls on the floor cackling with maniacal laughter!
I mean, what part of 'diabolical' do you not get? Demonic grin

Seriously, the answers will be appearing after you've stewed for a bit.
In the meantime, anyone who e-mails me with a correct solution to all or any
part of this little bit of torture fun, will get his or her name on
The Honours Board.
