How many Shakespeare quotes were there........... that is the question!

Evening everyone, I hope you've had a great day. Huge congrats to my lovely friend Karen for completing the London Marathon in a great time.

If you called by yesterday you'll know we had a bit of a Shakespeare theme running through the post with a little challenge to count the number of Shakespeare plays mentioned. Thank you to everyone who played along, counted up and left a comment. It's time to reveal all......................
Bit of a sneaky question really there were eight references in all and two plays were mentioned twice so the answer to the question 'How many Shakespeare plays are mentioned.....' was six. Here they are:

The Merry Wives of Mullion (Windsor) - Play Title
Margaret, Margaret, where for art thou Margaret - Juliet in Romeo and Juliet
Much a do about Nothing - Play Title
Double Double toil and trouble - the Witches in Macbeth
What's in a name that which we call a Rose by any other would smell so sweet - Juliet from Romeo and Juliet
We are merry as the day is long - Beatrice in Much a Do about Nothing
'Can one desire too much of a good thing' - Rosalind in As You Like it
'Tis a very excellent piece of work, madam lady' - Sly in Taming of the Shrew

Actually nobody guessed six but because I'm so impressed that you all participated that there is a little something for all who left a comment. If your blog name is below please e mail me at mycreativespirituk@gmail.com to claim your little something.

Saw my first Dragon too :-) After a journey that took me across the middle of the country and th...
