[Prudie]

Well done Sarumite, I'm from Dorset and have been looking at that one without success and - wait for it- my mum lived in Broadstone for 40 years!!

[sarumite]

Thanks Prudie ... I worked in Poole for a number of years, driving from Salisbury on a daily basis, so passed through Broadstone en route!
Still thinking about TG at S ?

[Prudie]

Yes I am and guessed you had a connection with Salisbury. I'll keep thinking

[poodledoo]

any chance you could come up with TGat S please Sarumite & Prudie- the "S" might be Salisbury!

[Prudie]

Still thinking Poodledoo and OH is now too, Salisbury is in Wilts I'm afraid!

[ttfn]

Afraid Salisbury is not in Dorset but Wiltshire

[poodledoo]

WHOOPS -sorry-now you know why Isaid the quiz was hard if you didn't live in Dorset-probably wouldn't be tackling it if it wasn't for cancer support! Probably getting past my bedtime too, and I wasn't thinking straight. Just determined to finish it!

[Prudie]

I'll think while I'm trying to drop off myself, it's definitely at S is it because a very famous landmark is The Giant but it's at Cerne Abbas

[poodledoo]

yes it is TG at S, and I know for sure its not at Cerne Abbas.

[poodledoo]

thank you for all your help so far.Hope nobody loses any sleep over it!

Tottenham's Guvnor at Sandbanks ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

[Prudie]

The Globe at Swanage but you're right you really would need local knowledge to have even heard of that.

[poodledoo]

special thanks to prudie for persisting in trying to find an answer.
