Trivia - Part 4

Sunday trivia (Target 1800h).

If I took the shortform of 1995 from AJJ, get down at the third possible junction, choose T instead of S, board the astrologically 'star' studded express probably hauled by direct current engine, unmixed, which will be the fourth city that I will encounter? How?

-Ara.

Answer: Coimbatore (95, WJR, KPD, JTJ, TPT, 66'27', SA, ED, TUP and CBE)

(fairly simple) Weekend trivia:

'Why' should we lose waist fat quickly at the famous 'fitness centre'? If I were to 'give money' before the 'big drink', see 'herds grazing in the meadows', meet the 'lotus-eyed-lady', say 'cha' after eating betel nut and end up having 'peach' flavoured imported' tea - what section did I travel? Total points = 1 section + 7 stations = 8.

Answer:

MRTS - VLCY, Taramani, Perungudi, Mandaiveli, Mundagakanniamman Koil, Chepauk, Beach.

Trivia - part 3

If a person starts his journey with first three steps from Vejendla, shoot vegetarian cranes along with the old lady (of film 'Muthu'), pays Wholesale Tax to fry chicken in charcoal and return to starting point, what would be the shape if we mark his travel in a map? 4+1=5 pts.




Answer: Rhombus (VEJ, KOK, WST, BBQ)
