12 Days of Christmas:
Tech, science & maths

Welcome to the 12 Days of Xmas Quizzes. We're going to give you a quiz a day, each related (often loosely related) to a line of the song "12 Days Of Christmas". No prizes though, it's just for fun!

Day 4
On the fourth day of Christmas,
my true love gave to me,
4 calling birds,
3 French hens,
2 turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

Ring, ring!
Ring, ring!
Webby: "Hello, B.I.S. H.Q., the webmaster speaking."
Caller: "Hello, I'm ringing to complain about the fourth Christmas quiz."
Webby: "The 'calling birds' one?"
Caller: "That's the one!"
Webby: "And your name is?"
Caller: "I'm one of the calling birds, of course!"
Webby: "Ah, right. One of the calling birds calling."
Caller: "That's right."
Webby: "And what exactly is your complaint?"
Caller: "Well it's the subject, 'technology, science and maths'."
Webby: "An excellent subject it is too, one of my favourites."
Caller: "Yes, it's lovely, but what on earth has that to do with calling birds."
Webby: "Errrrrr, it's sort of a telephone link. See the birds are calling, just like you are, and that's sort of technology isn't it? I just sort of lumped in science and maths to pad it out a bit."
Caller: "And you really expect to get away with that tenuous link?"
Webby: "Of course we do! No-one ever reads this stuff anyway!"
Caller: "Oh, I see. Thanks for your time then. Bye!."
Webby: "Goodbye calling bird, thanks for calling!"


Good luck with the science, technology and maths quiz!
