Re: QUIZ - Wednesday 7th October


I think they are. I'd have to research the website or ask instore but I'm sure I read somewhere the results of recent donations. The good thing is there is no 'winner' which means that even the less popular charities (which sadly the animal ones seem to be - heart treatment, OAP support etc seems to win; shop demographics speaks volumes), benefit to some extent.

Yes, Comfrey is right. I also grow it in my garden.

Q6. During which year were Pompeii and Herculaneum destroyed by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius?

Blimey!!! I'm torn between 100BC and 100AD (approx) . . . but on reflection I would think it'd be AD . . . fingers crossed!
