Ex Forum Admin Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 On the homepage (left hand side) http://www.livingfrance.com I've just added an online quiz to test your knowledge of France. Just a quite basic setup at present, but have a go and see what you think.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letrangere Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Good fun, James. I got 6/7, grossly over-estimating number of towns with mains gaz. More please? M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex Forum Admin Posted February 25, 2005 Author Share Posted February 25, 2005 6/7 is very good! I've just added a different one to http://www.francemag.com (right hand menu just under 'downloads') also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battypuss Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 We only get 5 channels in Normandy, or four if you life in the sticks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Avery Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 The "trick" is that 5 and Arte which fiollows it are separate channels. If it is channel 6 that you cannot get, join the rest of France, we only get a decent picture on 6 when it is raining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizzie15 Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 OK- 6 right , got my taxes in a muddle!! Doh- I'll have to go and look the wrong one up now and see what it is, or maybe you could have a liitle table with the answers/explanations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 I got thrown by the gas and sunshine hours - if I'd have gone for the one I thought it was I would have had 6 out of 7 but I thought I was being clever and took it as a trick question!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doh- I'll have to go and look the wrong one up now and see what it is, or maybe you could have a liitle table with the answers/explanations?At the end of the quiz it should bring up the questions that you got wrong and give you the correct answer/s.I think I will change the format of the quiz. Next update will have more questions, and you won't have the ability to go back and retry. Also at the end will be a league table where you can input your name and email address (if you choose to be included) and the top entry could win a prize?

Cardinal Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 James, Good fun! But you know we use kilometres here not miles. For those who don't get 6 channels loud and clear - go to Mr Brico and buy an analogue satelite kit. They were about 50 euros when I bought mine.
