Lightning Mate 22nd November 2011 08:03
Good morning all. :)

Look up the German for electrical power/electricity.

Then add the name of arguably the UKs' most famous mythical monster.

Go a long way North.

Not Chrislea David. They were based in Middlesex.

Lightning Mate 22nd November 2011 15:32
nearby dances rearranged
Nearby to you??

skytrain10 22nd November 2011 15:33
Nowhere near me mate!

Lightning Mate 22nd November 2011 15:37
I just wondered why you said not Middlesex and your cryptic says "nearby".

Lightning Mate 22nd November 2011 15:44
Perhaps it's just as well that I have to go to the supermaket because I'm being exceedingly dumb today!!

skytrain10 22nd November 2011 15:48
I just wondered why you said not Middlesex and your cryptic says "nearby"
You need to think of nearby in in a different context. I mean't that the manufacturer was based in Middlesex....I wasn't referring to Chrislea being based there:)

sabredog 22nd November 2011 15:49

skytrain10 22nd November 2011 15:50
