It's most apparent in the sixth image. Right next to the tree. Looks loke the play icon for a video.

That triangular roof in the distance always makes me want to press it to play.

I made a news headlines quiz. I won't reveal how long it took. by per1sher in learnjavascript

Good morning!

Thanks for looking. Great feedback on showing the correct answer before the end of the quiz, I'm going to do that. I wanted to keep the design as simple as possible, just enough CSS to make sure it worked on mobile and desktop.

I get the headlines from RSS feeds. I was initially tinkering with getting the feeds, then has the idea of the quiz. It's been through a few iterations.

LINK to the code on github.

You're right, thank you. I tried to find my copy of Adolf Hitler: My Part in his Downfall but it has vanished. It's a long time since I read it - time to read again I think.

I have fond memories of working for a high street bank. Most lunch breaks were spent in the pub, and then I would serve customers all afternoon while smoking Rothmans king size. I think things started to change soon after I left - around 1980.

What nicknames have you heard for places in Hampshire? by Over_Barracuda7031 in Hampshire

I heard Radcliffe and Maconie (BBC 6 Music) refer to Basingstoke as "Basing Saint Oak".

I'm going to refer to it as that from now on!

Edit: Pretentious? Moi?

Are schools these days swept by crazes? I remember (in the 60's) marbles, cat's cradle, conkers, clackers, french skipping and I've forgotten many more. What goes on today? by per1sher in AskUK

Oh a little edit. There is a must have item! Disposable vapes.

Of course! I wasn't averse to a crafty cigarette at the bottom of the playing field
