Where Is This?

It could be Cornwall..

If it was greener, I wou;ld have suggested Galway.

It could well be........It's one of Britain's landmarks I'm looking for!

Land's End? Not been there for years so no idea what it looks like now

That's It Susie.

Don't go there. It's a national disgrace.

Your turn Susie!

I know I know, just got to think of something!!

OK, what links a cinque port, a famous prime minister and Hercules?

Is the cinque port Sandwich and does Hercules refer to the Good Ship Hercules?

No and no Joy but you are in the right quarter of the country

Is the port Dover?

Prime minister Churchill

No to Dover, yes to Churchill

Two more bits and you might get the link

Is Hercules in this context a plane?

No Joy but a big hint, it is a form of transport

Surely not a bike?

No just a tad bigger and more powerful!!!! LOL But not full sized, another clue

I think It' s names of steam locomotives

Well Goliath and Sir Winston Churchill are, you just need the third clue to solve the connection!!

The Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway.

Brilliant!!! Your turn

When we were kids and on holiday around there it was a real treat to travel on this tiny railway. One day, on the return journey, the coaches were full so they let us travel in the guards van LOL so there was my mum and dad, my aunt and uncle and I think, 5 kids at that time, all crammed in this guards van which was only big enough for the kids to stand up in!!! A memory you never forget

It was a very cheap day out in those days, not so commercial, sadly those days have passed

A journalist, radio and tv personality.
He also appeared in several films
For part of his life he was in the care of an orphanage.
His education continued at Queens' College Cambridge
He died in the 60s.

Can you name him?

Is it Leslie Thomas, the author? Although, thinking about it, he hasn't appeared in any films that I know of............ and, er....um, he's still alive!!!

No, sorry Joy.
