They are a really good and fun way to explore a new town or city, or your local area... Suitable for all ages. We are in our 70's.

A trail of clues awaits in

Angel Islington

Property magnate Maureen Gull, better known as 'Mo Gull', is obsessed by a popular board game. Indeed, her passion for the game is so great that she purchased an island off the west coast of Scotland and renamed it after the game! Mo is now busy building houses and hotels there, naming each one after a place on the London version of the board. However, despite her great wealth, Mo is not a happy camper! Her most prized possession, a valuable first edition of the game, has been stolen and hidden somewhere on the island. There are a series of Clues scattered around London's Angel Islington that, when solved, will reveal where the game is located. Can you solve the mystery before the thieves return to retrieve the 'treasure'? We do hope so!
