Michael Mepham

Very sad to read about his death at such a young age these days. He set some very good teasing puzzles and wiil be missed by us all. I spoke to him on a few occasions and he was always very helpful

ST Where Was I?

Has anybody found the spa near Bethesda? The village with the Roman fort? Very difficult this week - could it be Thomas Telford and the Menai Bridge ?

ST Where Was I?

Have found the canal, but Conrad lived in Aldington, which doesn't seem to be 1 mile north of anywhere. Has anybody found somewhere else in Kent that Conrad lived?
