It's Quiz Time!

This is your chance to bring a little piece of Mozambique into your home! Through the following quiz you can win a locally crafted item to decorate your home, office, caravan, tree-hut or cardboard box with. There are so many local art craft salesmen outside the hotel harassing me whenever I walk out, I figured I might as well reward them for their persistence and buy something from them one day. And it can be yours! Just be the one that answers the most questions correctly.

How to Enter:
  1. Complete below multiple choice questions and email your answers to me.
  2. Do this no later than 31 August 2007 (yeah, you have some time).
  3. Hold your breath in excitement as you wait for the final results.
  4. Make your testament (do this before step 3).
Competition rules:
  • Everybody can enter. Even close relatives and employees. Even I can enter!
  • You can enter only once, even if you have a multiple personality disorder. I that case you each can also only enter once...
  • If you have no personality you can try to enter using someone else's.
  • There is no age limit, even though the organisation will be quite suspicious if people under the age of 4 enter. In that case both parents will be excluded.
  • There's no limitation with regards to sex. However, it is not recommended to complete this quiz during it.
  • And last but not least. There will be no mandatory drug testing.
Ready? Here we go!
  1. How many countries share a land border with Mozambique?
  2. How do you say 'shrimp' in Portuguese
  3. Which football legend was born in Mozambique?
  4. What is the name of the local currency?
  5. What is the most spoken first language in this country?
  6. (Tough one) How do you say 'Thank You' in this language?
  7. How did former president Samora Machel die?
  8. On what street will our bank open its doors?
  9. What will be the name of this bank?
  10. What type of nut is available in huge numbers in this country?
  11. Approximately how many times can you fit Holland in Mozambique?
And in case more people get the same number of correct answers, we have the tie-breaker. Closest one to the correct answer wins.

12. How many beers were there on my July hotel bill?

On behalf of the organisation, the judges, the notary, the sponsor and the union for multiple personality disorders, me, myself and I wish you all good luck!
