In article , Sacha
writes Janet - I am going to expire with curiosity before 2004 gets a grip on the world! PLEASE - gi'us a clue! The quiz is set by the RHS and is fairly difficult, I am not sure about a couple of my answers and another two I don't know. One question was: The plant hunter, David Douglas, worked for the Horticultural Society, (the forerunner of the RHS), in the 19th century and in 1834 lost his life while plant hunting in the Sandwich Islands when he was a) Eaten by a shark b) Bitten by a snake c) Gored by a bull d) Attacked by killer bees the other that I can't do was a picture of some fir cones and you had to guess: These cones are typically borne by: a) Korean fir b) Douglas fir c) Serbian spruce d) Corsican pine I get the telegraph every day any way but it's all on the Daily Telegraph web site and you can enter on line: the page for the actual quiz is http://www.telegraph.co.uk/promotion...l/content/prom otions/2003/12/11/rhs_form.jhtml BUT you have to register on the site before taking part. However anyone can take part so why not have a go? janet -- Janet Tweedy Dalmatian Telegraph http://www.lancedal.demon.co.uk |
