Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
I started at the bottom and worked upwards but I've run out of time with the last one to find, so here is my entry as it stands:
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Yes, the first cottage is catching me too - recognise it but can't place it. I can testify that 3 of your guesses are correct as I stay not that far from them.mickthemaverick wrote: ↑16 Dec 2021, 17:18 I started at the bottom and worked upwards but I've run out of time with the last one to find, so here is my entry as it stands:

9 out of 9 so far, Mick you have done very well. The Historic Environment Scotland entries were selected for 2021, and within that random selection pulled out those 10. Did a chop up and image search come up with the goods Mick The Historic Environment Scotland site doesn't come up with an image for every entry. Thanks for the joining in

impoving.lads.moderated is the location of the toilet in the house I was almost born in. I was almost born in the taxi that took me to the Elsie Inglis Maternity wing that we had fun over much early in this Forum.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Anyone who has the slightest bit of curiosity will look up their own house. I know I did. Super idea, I'd heard of it but didn't really know how it worked.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Here was one of the non random entries I came across in paddling around the Historic Environment Scotland but perked a connection and an interest.
I think you should knock this one off without thinking too hard Dormouse
