    A piano is a musical instrument made of strings and _______? Wood? Ivory? Cast iron? Brass? ...Hmm. Keys. Okay ....

    I had no clue what "fabric" is pictured. I tried vinyl, suede, pleather, naugahyde. I did NOT say leather because it had too uniform a pattern, like something manufactured. These "quizzes" always have at least one glaring blunder

    The spelling part of this is easy. The only questions I got wrong were because the answer was itself wrong, or the question was unclear. Mercury is not the only metal liquid at room temperature; gallium is too.

    That had me chasing my tail as well. Mercury is the answer that most go for but if you watch Nile Red you learn that gallium is up there too.

    That pic is rats, not mice, and that's not what we call a tumbler. Also a bit pointless if one gets close, and a right-mouse click brings up the correct spelling.

    I got stumped on cutlery... I tried silverware, tableware, flatware, dinnerware and utensil but the word cutlery evaded me...

    My dad always said that silverware is what we call the dinner utensils, whereas cutlery includes cutting knives, bread knives, potato peelers, etc. But then again, we live in NZ, so maybe it's different here.

    Okay, who's the moron that came up with this? I gave up on #7. Not only was it about spelling, but it was a guessing game. Guess what word they want you to choose? #5 was the same. Pianos have string, ivory, ebony, wood. Take a guess, read my mind!

    I guessed wood for the piano but apparently that was wrong. Without the wooden bit of a piano the strings and keys would be a heap on the floor, so I'm going to take that one.

    One that is not leather. It looks like vegan leather. Two the tunnel one "I went into the tunnel", "in the tunnel", "to the tunnel" - all are correct. Through the tunnel did not feature in my mind, FFS. As for the 'Boss' of a school. That is a Head Teacher in my country, no such term as a Principle. Further. Piano. Strings and Wood. Wood is the MAIN material of a bloody piano. It's actually the 'key' material..... I hated this. Total waste of time that is going to ANNOY me for Ages now ....

    The piano one and the complement one were the only ones I got stumped on. Too many variables.

    'This brave warrior' - sounded like it was referring to a particular person (a specific warrior in history), not a job description. I stopped here.
