Thanks for your kind words, julia-mag.

I should clarify that the quiz consists of anagrams of the names of 60 groups of musicians both pop and classical.

I forgot to mention to you earlier, Mamya, that as an anagram addict you'll love 1ac & 26ac in yesterday's FT crossword: http://media.ft.com/cms/0bf1c9c2-b006-11e1-b737-00144feabdc0.pdf

I must say I am tempted to consider setting a similar anagram quiz on a monthly basis in future in addition to the cryptic ones....

What does everybody think to this idea?

Finally getting round to putting my completed form in the post.
Love the idea of extra quizzes Mr MacQ, but although I like anagrams, and they're probably relatively easy for you to set, it's too tempting just to pop them into an online anagram solver when the going gets tough. Or maybe that's just me. Also, personally I prefer the option to send answers by email - but does that make extra work for you setting up online donation facility? Unless donations could just be added to the current 'big quiz' page.

Thanks for you thoughts, Mrs T.

I can certainly set up a JustGiving page to receive donations so that you wouldn't need to post anything.

As for the question of using anagram solvers, I do try and set questions containing a lot of proper nouns which are unlikely to be in their dictionaries.

Anyway, I'll see how this one goes before making a decision.
