Help With A Local Quiz

[Nor50]

Q1. Two of them? With one ankle it could be regarded as a misfortune, but with both it looks like carelessness (7 letters) - _ _ _ _ i _ _

[dannyk13]

Seen as twisting

two of them? You only need to post once.

This question came up a few days ago too.Another local is doing the same quiz- from a car dealer I recall. I don't think any answers suggested were clearly right

[JJ109]

I don't see why it is twisting though!
How about SPRAINS ?
Again I don't see why exactly!

[fiction-factory]

Yes, I suggested twisting but we were assured it's 8. Limping?

[fiction-factory]

Sorry I meant we were assured it is only 7 letters.
Sprains looks okay

[Nor50]

Hi all, thanks for your suggestions but none of them seem to be working- we have 3 clues per question then have to use the 3 words to put into a map website and it shows where car dealership is and you have to name it but none of those answers are working for me- I was convinced it was sprains but maybe one of my other two answers for that one are wrong!

This looks like a quiz where local knowledge is essential to solving it.

[Nor50]

You need local knowledge to identify the car dealership but you don’t for the quiz part of it- have been trying to do it since last Friday and am so close yet so far

[fiction-factory]

Are you willing to tell us what your three words area assuming sprains is correct (which I think it is)

[Nor50]

The only other part that could be incorrect (but I don’t think it is) is:
It’s expensive and tough to get to the top of this hill (5 letters)- s _ _ _ _
I have steep?

[dannyk13]

Steep looks good.
