Okay .... this contest is about July. Sorry I posted it so late, but had a hard time thinking up questions!!

To win, you need to answer the questions correctly, if by Aug 1 there's no complete winner, than I will pay 200g per question to the person with the first correct answer. ANYONE can enter this one ... except for me!!

About the month of July:


1. What month is it in the Gregorian calendar?

2. Who was July named for?

3. What was it called before being named for that person?

4. What month is it in the ancient Roman calendar?

5. July's flower? (there are two - either will be considered)

heart Good Luck! heart

Sweet! Bunny, you have 3 out of 5 with still until midnight tomorrow to get the other two. What's the easiest way to look up info on the Internet? (just ask you this so you can get the whole amount - hopefully. Don't give up so easily! heart )

The Roman calendar is supposed to have started with the month of March being the first, so I can only guess it would be September. The Gregorian calendar is the one used widely today, meaning that it would, in fact, be July. Am I right?

Well you definitely got 3 right, and what I was looking for was that July is the 7th month in the Gregorian calendar, and the 5th month in the Roman calendar. The fact, that you had some of the background info means, I'm going to give you one point for that, sound okay? Making your full winnings 800g!

Well done! I will be posting at least a contest a month, so check back, okay?
