Chudley Cannons Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Its not that cache that immortalised another puzzle, where it was something todo with the shape of roads making a '7' is it? You are CORRECT !!! It isn't the cache imortalised by the 7 puzzle. I can see the resemblance though. http://www.treasureclub.net/publichunts/lucky7/index.html Quote

Chudley Cannons Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Here is a trickier one (I think) I wonder who will win the race to identify this location. Quote
+Guanajuato Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I'd guess somewhere on the thames where 'the boat race' takes place. Don't know exactly, and to be honest I don't really care. Leave it to the college 'students' Quote
+purple_pineapple Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 is that the river wye by any chance? Quote
Chudley Cannons Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 is that the river wye by any chance? Nope. I'll give this one a while more and then zoom the picture out a little. Quote
+T.R.a.M.P. Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Here is a trickier one (I think) I wonder who will win the race to identify this location. It was there earlier, now this is all I see Quote
+Bambography Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 is that the river wye by any chance? Nope. I'll give this one a while more and then zoom the picture out a little. I think we might need help sooner rather than later! (Also, as you have over written your previous images, when you look back through the thread it looks a little odd as your latest photo shows!)
