Wow - "Money" GIVE-AWAY COMPETITION
 
1 Attachment(s)
Ok I'm going to try something a bit different to spice things up a bit.

For the correct solution to this puzzle pic I'm going to offer a prize of 100 Money which will be added to the bank account of the member with the first correct answers to spend on their Petz.

I am also going to be more strict than I was with the coconuts.

Here are the rules:
1. Since it is my money that I am giving away, my decision is final.
2. Your answers must be specific.
3. I can change the rules whenever I like.

OK here we go......

For 100 Money

Tell me-
a. What this building was, originally.
b. Where it is. (ie street name)

That's easy, isn't it? :D

If when somebody wins A-B, let Mick know & he'll call round with his camera to take a picture of you handing over one of those larger than life cheques to the lucky competitor.

:da:

Sorry, rule number four: NO PUBLICITY!

Incidentally can we have some sort of symbol for petz money please?

Well if you're doing all the money laundering can you run me through a couple of fifties on a boil wash, no conditioner, no starch. Thanks, I'll pick them up in the morning.

I don't have a clue where it is, but, looking at the shape of the bricked up windows I'd guess it was a church or chapel.

I was going to offer a Friends Meeting House or a Methodise Chapel. I would have a clue at this stage where it is.........or is it part of a disused School attached to a religious institution......

I've just dragged Busman round various palces where it isn't. :)

Old Sunday School, something to do with a Bethel Chapel, now called Barnes St Garage on Barnes St/ Lee St and that's a complete guess.

Yep, Barnes Street Chapel on Barnes Street, Accrington

I know it well!

Myself and my assistant, the lovely Rubella, being the adjudicating panel (Mrs Acrylic-bob and Acrylic-Biff, the Terrier with Attitude, were otherwise engaged), have sat and reached the following conclusions.

Bagpuss was first with the correct answers and thus becomes the first winnner. Congratulations.
Commiserations to everyone else.

There will be more to come when the weather lifts and I can get out and take some more pics.

Well done Bagpuss.

I walked that way home from work today just to make sure I was right. I have never noticed the side where Bob took the picture as its on a narrow back street between the garage and the Queens pub but I was aware of how it looks on the Lee Street side so I took a guess which luckly was correct.

Thanks for the cash Bob, wish it was real.
