Q1. Amazon's fulfilment centre in Dunfermline is 1 million square feet in size - that's roughly how many football pitches?
A. 14 (trust me, it is! )

Q2. How many new species are discovered by scientists every day?
[STRIKE]A. I'm unsure - gives options of 1, 4, or 41 (I found a ref to approx 2000 being found per year, so averaged this out to 4 per day, but that's my guess!) Anyone have an idea?[/STRIKE]
A. 41 please thank One-Eye and glennamy below :T:T

Each year, scientists discover an average of 15,000 new species, usually ones that are highly endangered.

A sea anemone that lives under an Antarctic glacier and a translucent snail from Croatia are among the top 10 new species of 2014 named by an international team of scientists on Thursday. The list comes from the nearly 18,000 species that were newly discovered last year.

Hi B*C

I found this:

20,000 in 2011

Linky: http://io9.com/5877595/meet-the-20000-new-species-we-discovered-in-a-single-year

So I reckon it might be 41 x 365 = 14965

Football pitches is 13?

(can't post links) - Google 'football pitches in 1 million square feet'

1 million (square feet) =
13.0116303 football pitches

EDIT - Didn't see competition was multiple choice, must be 14 as nearest

You're thinking of the other comp brightonman. This one you just need to answer two questions to log your entry.

See the other post here

and no, you earn one entry for clicking through to the retailers site (see instructions in post#1) but you could earn more if you purchase from retailers listed at the bottom of the comp entry page (although that wouldn't be 'money saving' unless you're buying for crimbo anyway :money:)
