Guardian Sports: You got...9/15 Not bad. Not bad at all.
And so it begins...
It is time for the Thursday news quiz, where even the most distinguished appearances can conceal a lingering doubt. A perfectly groomed moustache may suggest authority – until, thanks to our illustration from Anaïs Mims, it starts curling into a question mark of its own. Fifteen questions await – frankly rather more on the general knowledge side than topical news because the quiz master has been on holiday in Brighton and wrote most of it in advance, but it is what it is. There are no prizes, but we always enjoy hearing how you got on in the comments. Allons-y!
The Thursday news quiz, No 243

10/15 A pleasant way to start the day, the little grey cells were a little slow this morning. I expect someone will score much higher. Good luck.
Blinkers . . . . that's the worst that I've done for a while, only getting a lowly 7 
First try at this quiz

Whilst my time as chief quiz writer has been short so far, and I stand on the shoulders of many great question masters, it will still be my great honour to carry us over and into the big 500, and beyond!
Before we cross that monumental boundary, it's vital we maintain focus on the present, and the — not-to-be underestimated— 499th edition of the quiz!
Considering all the nines in this week's title, it felt only right to dedicate one round to the 1990s. The other special is focused on something a little sweeter...
LETS QUIZZZ
The 50% Guaranteed Quiz
A slow start, good last two rounds for a solid 17. Calling 20 a good score.

20/25 happy with that, some guesses, some that I was annoyed with when I saw the answer. Overall fair enough, well apart from one outrageous guess
