156Robert OwenM10516367 36 3 2 7 3 Y 6 69 8 34 Q1: Spot is a tad above the centre of road but have counted it. SH before 36 is 59. Q4: The Y leading S in GS8237 seems to turn white before NTR to right thus making the junction where the left leads to Sly’s Barn a WWW. Part 2: 1st A in FARAWAY needed modification to make it fit! The C in PLACE also seemed wrong to me…it fitted when mirrored.

181Janet RobbinsN501117 36 3 2 6 3      I am unsure whether the apparently staggered crossroads in GS 8536 is sufficiently staggered to give a white to orange then orange to yellow junction. My thoughs are that it does give a white/orange junction which makes my 3rd answer 2.

233Dee Rampling LeeE5042410 36 3 2 6 3      I have spent hours trying to do this one due to trying to find a crossroads which I believe should be classed as a three way white junction at 827363. If the leftmost GL is 81 then this junction can't be classed as a crossroads as the road goes off the map. Q4 I have answered 6 due to this junction. If it is classed as a three way then the answer will be 7.
235Alan CrabtreeM10061255 59 3 2 6 3 Y 6 69 8 34 rc1 - I considered last SH as possibly 36, but on very close inspection (Grid Square on my screen was 25cm x 25cm!), the spot is clearly in the junction of the Roman Road coming from Waterden, and so is not on the route, which comes in from the West. I therefore went for the next SH back, which is 59 just South of Haggard's Lodge.

251Sasha HeriotN4004322 36 3 2 6 7      Not sure about RC 5, it looks like it might cross GL 36 4 times between GL 84 and 85, but not sure as the road goes along it?? Defienately crosses it 2 times, I have counted additional 2 times in my answer in that square.

265Chris BeanN5004154 36 3 2 6 3      I wanted to thank you for all your help getting started with this! I have really enjoyed these puzzles (except for RC4 which I am still stumped on). :) Also, thanks for the reminder in Bulletin 8. I caught the fact I needed commas between certain answers right before that, so I am sure I am one of the culprits. Thanks for all your efforts putting this on! Chris

270Norman NicolsonN1011311 56 2 0 8 3      RC2 - DB. This could be interpreted as zero on the route I took - I ran along it twice and interpreted this as crossing twice. However it could easily be deemed not to have crossed at all. Or I could have got the route totally wrong!
