Entries for our prize quiz of jumbled up railway station names closed last Saturday.
There were just 21 entries from as far away as Ballindalloch and Otterburn but only 9 were completely correct.
Several people gave non-existent places as stations, others, stations that haven't existed for over 60 years.
Many, including I, thought it was a hard quiz. Comments included "That was very difficult but passed 3 damp evenings in a caravan in Bellingham ! Thanks !", "Sorry, stations don't seem to be my forte but I have tried. Hope your quiz has been a big success."
We feel our quiz was a big success, and our thanks go to Barbara Scott, our Secretary's sister, who devised the quiz, to all those who sold quiz entry forms for us, including Dean & Simpson, Hawick; From Me to You, Jedburgh; Taylors, the newsagents, Jedburgh; McCuddens, the newsagents, Selkirk; Lunch Box in Newtown St Boswells.
The winner lives in Selkirk, and will get £10.
Those who provided an SAE will get the answers in the post, but for everybody else, you can download the quiz answers.
