As it is nearly Christmas and as we will soon all be dulling our brain cells with too much alcohol and food, the Two Blondes have put together an extra tricky Dartmoor Challenge to keep the synapses firing. One clue for each day of Christmas and all of them are associated in some way with Dartmoor. Let us know if you work them all out. Answers after Christmas. Good luck and good cheer!
Oooo nice one. I always like things like this at Christmas. Worked out a couple already (3 & 6). Might have to bring this out at the dinner table on Christmas Day as the Ten Tors Veterans (i.e. my dad and his wife) will be joining us! I will wait until we have all 12 before listing any answers me thinks. Note the optimism of WHEN we have all 12!!!!
A jolly Chrimbo to you lovely blondies! keep me up to date with any Christmas ramblings!!! It is down to me to plan our traditional Xmas walk but obviously I have to sit this one out so am considering a figure of eight walk based around a pub which means I can sit there all day and they can come and visit me!!! Hubbies suggestion is a figure of eight walk based around a car park where he will leave me in the van to cook up food for everyone at lunchtime!!!! Think I prefer my suggestion!!!
It wasn’t all that long ago that we set this quiz and already I have forgotten some of the answers! So good luck and let me know when you have them all!
Merry Christmas to you and your family Rach.

The answer for number one doesn’t feel right, but…
1 Dartmoor
2 Moors Way
3 Barrows at Three Barrows
4 Winds Car Park
5 Wyches Farm
6 in Ten Tors Team
7 Lords Land Cairn
8 Legs on a Tick
9 Maidens Stone Circle
10 Commandments Stone
11 Miles in 18 Kilometres
12 Menhirs still standing
Joyeux noel et bonne annee to you all – looking forward to coming back the blog in the new year.
Have another look at number three although you answer works, ours is much better! Am impressed though Mr Woolly, especially number 12, didn’t think anyone would get that. Merry Christmas to you too, glad you enjoyed!

Fairly confident about 2,3,6,8 and 11. This is giving me yet another reason to procrastinate this morning…

Have you been hacking our e-mails?!
Well done Mr Woolly – I thought it was 3 Bridges at Two Bridges????
It was three bridges at Two Bridges but I went and couldn’t find the third one – sure there are three …
