I agree with you mali this treasure hunt does look very interesting and a separate topic might be useful. I have already pre-ordered the Kindle & PDF versions, and I'm looking forwards to the launch date next month. |

Ooh, this one could be right up my street. I feel like I need another good UK based hunt to take my mind off the other three I'm working on. Hopefully I get a bit of inspiration from this one!
I look forward to it ☺️

Hi hiddentreasures (Kelly) - I received my Kindle and PDF versions of the hunt yesterday. Firstly what a great looking treasure hunt and an amazing piece of work for your first venture writing in this unique genre. It's definitely my kind of treasure hunt and is very reminiscent of some of the earlier older hunts that I have worked on. I particularly like that the clues are concise and in plain sight and not concealed within page after page of unnecessary text. After just a few hours of research, I have already found lots of interesting and previously unknown places within the UK and I'm having fun trying to solve the clues. To date I'm 100% confident on one landmark location, and tentatively confident about the general location of at least 2 more but without knowing the exact landmarks. Not even considered the phrase/saying or keyword, so plenty of work to do moving forward. |

Similar progress as you, Tarot. I have 3 locations I think are solid plus one of the word scrambles solved. The word puzzles are what are catching me out the most. Very enjoyable puzzle overall, though. Plenty of confirmers when you get on the right path.

Hi whispa - Although it's very early days and I don't want to post any spoilers at the moment, it would be interesting to know if we have solved similar clues. My progress so far is a follows: Clue 1. Reasonably confident of the general location, but not found the landmark. Clue 2. Reasonably confident of the general location, but not found the landmark. Clue 3. Reasonably confident of the general location, but not found the landmark. Clue 4. No Initial Thoughts - Not Researched Clue 5. Confident of the landmark with lots of confirming clues. Clue 6. No Initial Thoughts - Not Researched |
