Stabroek Market is standing in one piece today, thanks to a big concrete store immediately north which acted like a firewall but was itself destroyed during one day of burning and looting 53 years ago. What was the name of that big concrete store?

Sharp as a razor, slashing away all rivals.

Yes, Brodie and Rainer. It had a snackett on the ground floor where my mom took me one year before the fire. That was where I first saw an orange juice cooler with three artificial oranges swirling round and round. I was so paglee I thought they were real oranges.

Congratulations!!

Thank you so much Sir Gil , but I think Django might have known the answer too from his reply post to mine

 @ the real oranges.

Our quiz today:

On Vlissengen Road in Georgetown there are three gas stations side by side. Behind those gas stations there is the Demerara Tobacco Company [DEMTOCO] and after that, the Chronicle newspaper compound.

Now, ignore the gas stations. What had existed on the land now occupied by DEMTOCO and Chronicle, and what major historical event took place there?

Resaul Maraj oil factory burnt down during riot

No.

I have no clue.

same like u

same here

our only hope is Anjali

Even my guy (dad) was like "you gat me there chile"

Riya, I don't know myself

I keep thinking maybe some uprising might have happened.

CLUE: WINGED HORSE

Pegasus!    (From my knowledge of Greek mythology)

The clue is for yesterday's quiz. Everyone said they had no clue, so I give a clue today. We're dealing with a place in Bel Air Park off Vlissengen Road. That quiz is still open.

DEADLINE: 1:00PM

CLUE: WINGED HORSE

The only winged horse i know is Pegasus,

so my answer will be a playground.

a cemetery

I'm just guessing now

The Bel Air Race Course and early aircrafts (winged horses).

You're the brightest of them all.

That portion of land in Bel Air Park was the Cannon Race Course.

In 1913, the first aviation flight from British Guiana took off from there. The plane was assembled by a German named George Schmidt.

My heartiest congratulations to you!!

I had all faith in Anjali

Congrats!

The info is out there and I knew someone would find it. That's why I didn't close the quiz yesterday.

Go back to your cemetery, Riya.

hehehehe

I was brain dead

The first recorded flight in Guiana was in 1913 when George Schmidt, a German assembled and flew his plane from Canon Race Course, which is today the west section of Bel Air Park, east of the present service stations on Vlissengen Road. During the war I hunted ground doves on this open pasture and ate antidesmond till it ‘gainst me and belly bound.’  This was long before Demtoco, the laundry and Argosy, and later Graphic newspaper presses were built there.  The coconut oil mill off Lama Ave was destroyed by fire in Bel Air in the sixties.

Gilly you stump most of us.

Congrats Angali.

I found this site this morning but was too lazy to read it to find the clue. 

Thank you, thank you Sir Gil  Thanks for the clue, that was what helped me.

Thank you Riya.

Thank you Django.

Here we are again.

On the right bank of the Canje river/creek, about 57 miles from its mouth, there is a tributary. Name that tributary.
