Though knowing about that person's lifestyle I am not surprised Charles Dickens did not welcome them.<br /><br />I was Esther Summerson in the Bleak House quiz and Doctor Manette in the A Tale of Two Cities quiz, very funny because I am not like either character at all!<br /><br />Isn't Gad's Hill a delightful website? I discovered it about a year ago and got alot of enjoyment from doing all the quizzes and puzzles. Did you see the virtual tour of Dickens' house? My siblings and I had fun looking at his house and neighborhood on Google Maps street view. The district is very charming.<br /><br />Thanks for posting the quizzes!Christinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5490346761566035007.post-87143184306071436542012-02-05T22:50:21.890-05:002012-02-05T22:50:21.890-05:00I have never read any of Charles Dickens, yet was ...I have never read any of Charles Dickens, yet was stupid enough to take the quiz, and my score was 7%.<br />It doesn't get more embarrassing than that!<br /><br />In the What Bleak House Character Are You I was:<br />Ms. Esther Summerson.

It's nice, you know, to get the heroines on quizzes. :P<br />And on Lucie's, it said: "your forehead is so expressive you don't even need to open your mouth" (or something like that) which made me laugh because I've been told before that I have an expressive forehead. :P Although I didn't think about that when I was reading the description of Lucie in A Tale of Two Cities the other day...Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05676306236172688321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5490346761566035007.post-50578566782846872172012-02-05T17:23:17.472-05:002012-02-05T17:23:17.472-05:00Ugh!

"Martin Cheezewiz" and "Great Exaltations" really made me laugh, as did "The Life and Adventures of Thomas Knuckleboy"... did you base that last one on Mrs. Squeers, by any chance? :)<br />One thing I noticed though... you asked how many spirits visited Scrooge and the correct answer is actually one more than the correct answer you gave... did you forget Jacob Marley?<br />This was such fun! I got 93/100 (14 questions). I missed the one about the famous children's author--that is really interesting, I didn't know that! Unwanted houseguest, eh? I guess they didn't get along, then. :)Miss Dashwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15821653607968651548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5490346761566035007.post-59922713892777934622012-02-05T07:18:57.422-05:002012-02-05T07:18:57.422-05:00For the Charles Dickens Knowledge Quiz, my score w...For the Charles Dickens Knowledge Quiz, my score was 67%. I got 10 questions correct, and the other 5 wrong. So apparently, that's considered a fail. :( But I enjoyed it so much!
