 Topic: Albufeira Quiz
Posted: 14/May/2015 at 19:47 |
|
This is my families twentieth year visiting Albufeira. You would think I would get fed up with the place but no, I just miss it more every year.
Anyway to celebrate I have been given permission to stage a forum quiz featuring none other than ALBUFEIRA.
The first prize is a book called:-
A Short View Of The History Of Albufeira by Idalina Nunes.
There are no second or third prizes, so please read carefully
I will submit ten questions about Albufeira, one each week, and entrants MUST, PRIVATE MESSAGE me their answer. NO answers are to be posted on the forum. Posting an answer on the forum means immediate disqualification and I will send the GNR round to see you. If a correct answer is received, the participant will qualify to answer the next question, If an incorrect answer is given, the participant is OUT of the quiz and no longer allowed to answer questions.
The quiz is all about FUN and ALBUFEIRA.
The quiz will start next week suggestions and comments are welcomed

Ally, sent you a pm on 15th May which hasn't been read, I think the reason for that is that it may have been to your old member name, re-sent yesterday to your current name when I noticed I wasn't on the list but still not opened. Is it me? You don't call, text, email send flowers any more  .
