a while! We did it in teams and it took us the weekend. such good fun!
I think it could all be done over a weekend (Sat and Sun) if you don't hang about and start early each day. Combine it with a river cruise to Greenwich - I went there by bus, but it took forever.
We are hoping to use the traesure hunt shortly but would like some idea of how long the sections (and/or the whole thing) would take? Any experienced hunters out there know?
Lexy, I gave you one of the answers you were looking for - when are you going to send me the one I need?

Hello! Really need some help on questions 28 and 29 - Wren's House and The Globe Theatre. Willing to swap any other answers for these two!

Another victim of the strike! Therefore don't have 33, and unsure about answer to 29. Anyone willing to trade? Great fun despite the strike. Thought I knew London quite well...
How on earth did the 2nd May come round so quickly?! I have also missed out on the tate due to strike action.... are they joking?
Off out after work tomorrow night to find the Lincoln's Inn Fields clue. I have got all the others and am willing to swap any for the Egg one.
my email is: louisawood29@yahoo.co.uk
Oops, forgot - you'll need this.. iluvelvez@hotmail.com.
Blinkin' strike - don't they realise there's a Treasure Hunt on? The Egg one is the only one I can't get. Help! I have all the other answers if you need to exchange. Though I'm worried I may have the Brompton Oratory one wrong because of what Richard said.
I have the answer to question 43 (Tate)! If you want it please let me know the answers to 22 and 23! Please email lexyloola@gmail.com - talk soon!
Unable to get answers to 21-23 in Greenwich plus questions 33 and 43. Have all other answers! If you want to trade please email me at lexyloola@gmail.com. Thanks!
Here's a question - did you include the Brother when counting down to the tenth priest at Brompton Oratory?
