Well done all that had a go, will post a new one soon just in the process of making it more of a challenge
Hi Niel with regards Q2 i have put some thing on there that would have got you to the answer, as Rog as said, but next time I will include in the question.
ROG:
Neil, Re Q2 - all the Qs are subject to the caveat in the first line of the quiz - does that make a difference to your answer ?
Yeah it does, I didn’t read that bit so only the last bit of my answer now applies. Although I would question the use of the word normal in relation to a 13 hour shift, I’ve only had a shift longer than 9.5 hours once last year.
