    Q1: petrichor is a scent, and more specifically is the scent from water falling on dry soil. A scent cannot be seen in a photograph, and as the photograph is of wet grass, not wet soil it does not match the supposedly correct answer but instead corresponds more closely with dewfall. That is a terrible start to a quiz. And, yes, I did answer 'dewfall' because of the misleading picture.

    Q8 has two possible correct answers, as the ticket can be classed as both ephemera and memorabilia: ephemera because it wasn't made with longevity in mind, and memorabilia because it can form part of a collection about a specific event or category (sport: football, etc). A single item is not really enough to enable a decision between the two choices.

    I've just gone through a whole box of tickets for events and places that I visited. It was definitely memorabilia.

    Number 11 is a bit on the nose. From Google - Bunting refers to festive strings of decorative triangular flags, lightweight fabrics used for flags. (Emphasis on the triangular) Which is what is shown on the picture. Now, if the picture was of Festoon Lighting...

    Bunting is what I just put up on our car show stand this afternoon - triangular flags on string and unsurprisingly it hangs in curves because gravity. Festooned just means "covered in" and is also a kind of light bulb usually used for car courtesy and numberplate lights.
