Quiz Time (General Knowledge & Out of Area)

[Yorkie]

Are they on Foia by Monchique then?

Absolutely correct, Hugo!   I would have been most disappointed if you had not got it, especially after the last clue!  The highest point of the Algarve at 902 metres with fab views to the coast at Portimao and Alvor.   Here's another pic with all the early warning stuff.   

[Hugo]

Thanks Yorkie, now here is another one closer to home.   It's in N Wales but what is it and what street is it in?       

[Yorkie]

Am I correct in thinking that each motif is made up of pieces of tile, like a mosaic?   

[Hugo]

Yes, that's correct.   Good luck Yorkie.     ££$

[Hugo]

As it hasn't been Googled last night here is the first clue:-

It isn't off the beaten track but you could say that it's a mini outdoor pursuits centre.   

[Tosh]

Within the Wesh Mountain Zoo.

[Hugo]

Nice try Tosh but I'm afraid that it is not within the Three Towns or even Conwy County.

It has a good mountain bike track as well as a lake nearby.     

[Yorkie]

I'll try Llyn Brenig Outdoor Centre.   

[Hugo]

Good thinking Yorkie but too far away.    I think Jack or Gwynant may have gone past while on their walks but even if they wanted to go in they couldn't.    Far too old!   

[DaveR]

Is it that Marsh Tracks place in Rhyl?

[Hugo]

You're in the right place Dave so I'll give it you.   It's the Dens Project in Marsh Road Rhyl.         

The Dens Project is new project funded by Denbighshire's Family First, Co-managed by the OakTree Centre and Rhyl Adventure Playground, and supported by Denbighshire County Council Countryside and Youth Services. This Project will be looking at giving children the opportunity to play in a way that perhaps they can not always do so in todays society. Based on the Morfa Playing Fields and utilising the large expanse of public space that lies behind it, this Open Access Project will run every Thursday evening between 4.30pm & 6.30pm. Children will be encouraged under the supervision of Play workers to build dens and ropeswings and Play in an environment that they might not previously have felt safe in accessing. Parents/Carers are more than welcom to pop down when the sessions are running to find out more about what is happening. PLEASE NOTE this is an "open access Playscheme" for 5-13yrs. The term open access means that children aged 5-13yrs of age are free to come & go as they please. We cannot commit to keep a child on site until collected by parent or carer

[DaveR]

Thank you, Hugo! 

Where in the North West of England will you find this Pier?

[Yorkie]

My instinct is to suggest Wigan!   

[Mikethewatch]

Think Wigan pier is on the canal Yorkie !

[DaveR]

No, this Pier is most certainly on the coast.
