Lydia land

by Chas Sun Apr 29, 2012 5:04 pm

The land north of the Humber, beyond Tykeland. ;-)

I think it could be in the faux-county of Cleveland.

by Guest Sun Apr 29, 2012 5:27 pm

Hmmm..........................not really.

by Chas Mon Apr 30, 2012 10:39 am

Oh dear, I seem to have missed the Robin Hood's Bay bit ..... sorry for causing confusion.

It would be churlish to jump in with an answer right now, I'll let Joy add the final touches.

by feathers Mon Apr 30, 2012 10:56 pm

Moi? Erm, thanks Chas but I don't know the answer!

Susie might though!

by Susie Mon Apr 30, 2012 11:01 pm

Not a hope!!!

by feathers Mon Apr 30, 2012 11:11 pm

Well, if it's in Lydia land, it just might be South Shields, as you suggested Susie........

by Guest Tue May 01, 2012 8:54 am

Which community?

Ah but I did not get any indication any of those were right!!!

by Chas Tue May 01, 2012 12:36 pm

Clue: Peter Green's Fleetwod Mac did a song about some of them in Sunderland, {Dreadful pun warning!}

by Chas Thu May 03, 2012 12:36 pm

OK, I did warn you ....

Sheik Yemani Makker
also known as "Shake Your Money-maker".

by Susie Thu May 03, 2012 5:05 pm

Eh?????

by Guest Thu May 03, 2012 5:12 pm

I think he means Shake Your Money Maker.............

by Guest Thu May 03, 2012 5:13 pm

I'm off to Newcastle for a few days. Between you, you've got it. South Shields and Yemeni.

by Chas Fri May 04, 2012 3:51 pm

Since you did most of the work, it's all yours, Susie.

Plus the shame for that dreadful pun .... I don't deserve the honour.

by Susie Sat May 05, 2012 2:18 pm

OK Chas

Where is this?

General knowledge - Page 9 Whatisthis

by Chas Sun May 06, 2012 2:40 pm

That's a bit small for my blinking eyes!

It could be any tree anywhere .... except the Major Oak.

by feathers Sun May 06, 2012 4:19 pm

A difficult one Susie! Give us a clue please.....

by Susie Sun May 06, 2012 5:39 pm

Hmm difficult without giving it away........

Nothing to do with the oak

It will come to the fore at the Jubilee this summer!!!

by feathers Sun May 06, 2012 9:24 pm

So is it something to do with the Woodland Trust tree planting?

by Susie Sun May 06, 2012 10:29 pm

Sorry no

by Chas Mon May 07, 2012 1:14 pm

After "Save image as" and then zooming to full screen,

If that isn't a gravestone,

It could be the source of the Thames at "somewhere in Gloucestershire", near Cricklade (Oxfordshire).

by Susie Mon May 07, 2012 3:45 pm

It is the source of the Thames, or at least those that do not dispute it say it is, but it is somewhere in Gloucestershire, not near Cricklade so come on Chas, do the j0b properly and tell us where exactly

by Chas Tue May 08, 2012 11:00 am

According to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, Thames Head (click) is the place and has the same picture to prove it!

by Susie Tue May 08, 2012 12:08 pm

But where is it? The village or nearest town?
