The Thursday quiz summer of shrinkflation continues with yet another themed week. You can’t have failed to notice that the Olympics have been going on in Paris, so this is a quiz about (mostly) non-sporting Olympic things. Remember, it is just for fun, but since there are fewer questions than normal every answer carries a lot more pressure with it, like having to make an archery shot and knowing that if you don’t make a 10 you’ve blown your medal chances. Have fun, guess well, and let us know how you get on in the comments!
