Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
One of two I would suggest, either Scandinavian Trees or Plants under the Ocean?

Scandinavian trees has it....before its pointed out you don't really switch on to the subtlety of the musicianship.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Got today's at last
A bit longer than sixteen seconds.
These things can take a while.
I'm going to see my new great-granddaughter so went to get my car. On the way I found a phone.
Wondering how to contact the owner as it was PIN-locked and also face recognition locked.
It rang and when I answered I got a teenage grunt but a voice in the background asked If I had found her phone. Made arrangements for her to come for it but couldn't remember my address, had to go out into the street and read the signboard to tell her.
Pleased she has it back and so was she. I remember seeing her as I walked through the park.
Lovely woman. She was beside herself as her life seems to be contained on her phone.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Heardle
Ok yesterday I proved as far as Mariah Carey's songs go my only chance of getting one on heardle would be if it was All I want for Christmas is You. I'm afraid virtually all of her discography has passed me by.
Today, leaving it late, back to 1982, and I'm back to virtuoso status getting it in One Second. Definitely easily gettable in the 16 given, even a few lyrics to help.
Regards Neil

1964.....fill your boots FCF faithful, in the upper echelon of well-knownness although I took 4 seconds and got a "you're a star!" from heardle inc. , some may get it even quicker.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
We haven't had a mystery church for a while, so where did I find this one?

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Not the answer Mick, although if I looked long enough I might find it, but a question which may narrow it down a bit.
The circumstantial evidence. The church clock shows a time of just after 11.30 am Monday morning.
Now you had revealed your Monday plans here, and you also clicked the shutter at Newport Pagnell Services.
Can I assume it is within 10 Miles of Newport Pagnell/ Milton Keynes

That puts the Church, if you stuck to your plans, pretty much in the vicinity of Newport Pagnell/ Milton Keynes possibly on the way to Zels, but maybe more likely after the business was concluded on the way home.mickthemaverick wrote: ↑04 Jun 2022, 13:50 So I hope to collect all my lots in Leicester on Monday morning and will be passing you on the way home around 11.30-12 if you are in.

You may assume that but I'd advise you against 10 miles, 20 is better, consider that there was a hold up on the M1 between 11 and 12 which I chose to avoid on my way home!!

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Quite a wide search still with little idea of the alternative route taken, and in the end it was the chequerboard tower top which got it. Could equally well have been Herts or Beds, maybe even Bucks and there are a lot of Churches.
The Church of St Peter, Lilley, Hertfordshire

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
I hit the 'increase time' arrow too many times. I usually go to the full 16" so I don't have to keep repeating it but it went straight to the whole thing.
I would never have got it anyway, it was only when it showed the title and artist that I knew who/what.
Horrible.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
See if you can find where this is, one of specially shot locations for the opening credits of "Old Country".
Put it this way you will be wasting your time looking in Northumberland. Jack's stomping ground was mainly The New Forest and Dorset.

1977.....and I'm back to getting it in 1sec with a nice bit of happy funk. That's after a few days of excusable fails in the hip hop type area, and inspite of having A Temper Trap signed drumskin from a 2010 gig in Newcastle (not mine of course).

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Distinct lack of recognition here.
As usual.
