AnonyMouse_64 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Here we are into December already! Each day up until Christmas (hopefully, unless something disastrous happens to my computer ) I will be posting one question. I will try my best to make sure they aren't too hard and there will be a variety of different ones so that everyone can take part if they would like. You will have until the New Year to submit answers to me, so you can even relax with a glass of Mulled Wine over Christmas and have a crack at them. Since this is the season of goodwill and the competition is just for fun, there will be no overall winner as such. Everyone who answers at least one question will have their names put into a hat and have a chance of winning a prize. I believe Helen still has some books, so a couple of those are up for grabs, there will be two cheques for £10 each, as well as a couple of Fsf goodies. So I really hope you'll have a go, but most of all I hope it helps you get into the Christmas spirit. As always, please send me a private message with any answers - you can send me as many or as few as you like. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 (edited) Ooooooh, how exciting! Lovely to have something to look forward to each day! This will be my advent calendar. My first year of not celebrating the run up to Christmas in a setting. Perhaps a good thing though! Thanks Beau!

AnonyMouse_64 Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 1. Which English author wrote the childrens book 'The Snowman'? And for your entertainment, watch the Irn Bru advert.

AnonyMouse_64 Posted December 4, 2010 Author Share Posted December 4, 2010 Sorry I'm a bit late today! Today's isn't a question but is for those of you who are budding poets. 4. Make up a poem/verse that includes the word star and post it in this thread. Remember, everyone who joins in with at least one question will be eligible to win a prize so if quizzes aren't your cup of tea then perhaps you'd like to give this a go instead. Fancy a go at origami? What does one star say to another star when they meet? Glad to meteor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 (edited) If I were a king, I'd wish on a star for a diamond ring If I looked after sheep, I'd wish for a manger where a baby could sleep If I rode a sleigh, I'd wish for toys so children could play But as I'm a Mum, I'll wish on a star for peace, love and happiness for everyone * * * Oops, just realised that this should have been part of yesterday's quiz thing !
