Unlike the formidable Friday foxers, the Monday kind are designed with lone truth sleuths in mind. While Roman, my Chief Foxer Setter, would be very interested to know how long it takes you to defox today’s brainteaser, he requests that the comments section isn’t used to share solutions or drop hints.
“Where am I?”
Using the following clues (the map above is purely decorative) in combination with Street View (all Solo Foxer solutions are Street Viewable), MAPfrappe, and other online tools, work out my location. The answer will appear under next Monday’s solo foxer.
Today I’m equilongitudinous with an island that’s also a folk rock band, and equilatitudinous with a city that’s also a Battle of Coronel warship. Closer to a railway than a church, and a WW2 operation than a WW2 field marshal, I’m about nine furlongs from a Supermarine Spitfire and 250 metres from an address that hit the headlines in 2018. I’m in a city. The city’s most successful football club play at a ground with a capacity of 5000. You’ll find the city in a country that has won Olympic medals in javelin, badminton, and cross country running in the past.
You’re probably in the right place if you can see…
- A cycle lane
- A Union Jack
- A scooter
- A behatted lion
- A white Ford Ranger Wildtrack
- A repurposed police station
- The words ‘MOLE CHANGES’
I’m not in Pont-à-Mousson.
(Last week I was here)
Behatted lion ahoy as they say in these parts. It’s early on Monday morning and I’ve already achieved something this week. Fantastic.
