Each year at Christmas, following the Scandinavian custom, BtP sets twelve days of Procol puzzles which great numbers of the band's adherents follow with much interest and merriment ... at the end of the trail is typically a tiny answer, which you send in by e-mail to the webmasters, to win one (or more?) of the prizes below. The puzzles start on Christmas Day.
The twelve days of Christmas will simply involve thinking about song-titles, mostly by Procol Harum, with a handful from members' or past members' solo projects: the information required is here at 'Beyond the Pale', the only Procol Harum work of reference you'll ever need.
This year's fine freebies are, we trust you'll agree, every bit the equal of anything from 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 or 2017: special thanks to Procol Harum, Esoteric Records and Mark Powell, Rockville Records and Manfred Ploetz, Geoff Whitehorn, Keith Reid, and George Lovell.

Competitors should rank the above prizes in the order they favour them, and send in their preference all twelve letters, please! with the solution to the puzzles. Your message will look something like: "The brief answer is [x] and my prize preferences are MRBANGLEDISC or MRSBIGCANDLE or whatever" We shall allot the first three prizes on a beat-the-clock basis, where the earliest correct response earns its first choice of prize and so on; after that all subsequent correct entries received in the next 48 hours will be placed in the BtP Homburg and the remaining prize-winners will be drawn by a suitably Glamorous Assistant, all being well. In the somewhat unlikely event of there being fewer than a dozen winners, the first people to submit correct answers will get more than their fair share of the prizes! The quiz starts on Christmas Day and runs through to Twelfth Night. You can join in at any time, if you have a pencil and an internet connection. Best to play on your PC or laptop ... could get eyestrain if you try to do it on a phone. |
