Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the name of the holiday company that the reps work for?

Answer: Young Free and Single

'Young Free and Single', or 'YF&S' as it is known, is a holiday company that has hotels in many of the happening resorts in the Mediterranean. Their main aim is to get their holidaymakers drunk as fast as possible and to stay drunk for as long as possible!

2. Who was the new resort manager in San Antonio for this season?

Answer: Alison Shand

Mikey and Brad were two First Year Reps and Jane Ward was the Overseas Manager who worked at the Head Office of 'YF&S'. This was Alison's final season for 'YF&S', and she was determined to fiddle as much money as she could from the company.

3. Which one of the following WAS NOT a 'First Year Rep' in San Antonio?

Answer: Greg

Greg was in his third season as a rep for 'YF&S'. He immediately found that he had a lot in common with both Brad and Mikey. The only person at the resort who really had any time for Mario was Alison; none of the other reps liked him.

4. Which of these bars forms part of the 'YF&S' pub-crawl?

Answer: Cockney Pride

A cockney man called Trevor ran the 'Cockney Pride'. Trevor could not pronounce his R's correctly - they came out sounding like W's. 'Although Mikey knew it would taste disgusting, he ordered a bwandy and owange and some dwy-woasted peanuts.'

5. Where was the first 'YF&S' death of the season?

Answer: Crete

A First Year Rep named Zena had to deal with the first death of the season, on her first lone coach trip. 'Poor wee girl! Her first week in her first season and she has that to deal with.' Jane shook her head.'

6. What is the name of Jane's assistant?

Answer: Tom Ortega

Tom worked as Overseas Control, under Jane. He had Spanish roots and could speak Spanish fluently, but Jane requested that he did not let anyone know this. His knowledge of the language came in useful during a meal with Felipe Gomez the Contracts Director, a Spanish Hotelier and the Ibiza staff.

7. Who, whilst at a beach party, threw an American football and hit a small child?

Answer: Brad

Mikey threw the ball to Brad for him to pass back. Brad had been shown how to throw the ball properly earlier in the season. 'Brad launched the ball. As soon as it left his hand he knew it was a bad throw.'

8. Which Rep was badly beaten late at night on his way back to his apartment?

Answer: Mikey

Mikey was badly beaten up by the elder brother of Mario and some of his cronies. They beat Mikey up at the request of Mario, because Mario thought that Mikey was responsible for a practical joke that had been played on him. Mikey was not actually responsible for the joke, it was Brad.

9. Near to the end of the book, a new rep, Carmen, joins the team. We later find out that she is the sister of someone at Head Office, whose sister is she?

Answer: Jane's

Carmen is Jane's younger sister. She was put on resort to watch Alison and to find out how she was laundering money. Carmen and Brad eventually fell in love with each other.

10. Brad owned a classic car, which he used to travel to and from Ibiza. What kind of car was it?

Answer: Triumph Herald

Brad bought the car because he thought he had no choice at the time. It was constantly letting him down. 'It had an ill-fitting Ford Sierra engine, which gave it the turning circle of the QE2 and made it a nightmare to drive.'
