Every Friday, Tally-Ho Corner’s cleverest clogs come together to solve a ‘foxer’ handcrafted by my sadistic chum and colleague, Roman. A complete ‘defoxing’ sometimes takes several days and usually involves the little grey cells of many readers. All are welcome to participate.
V is for Very well received Fulcrum. It’s not often a new DCS flyable gets a reception as warm as the one the new MiG-29A has received. Perusing the forums, praise of the flight model and framerate impact is particularly easy to find. Evidently, although cheaper faux Fulcrums are available, finer facsimiles are not.
Q is for Quick trade card. The collectible shown below was disgorged by a coin-operated railway station weighing machine some time in the 1950s.

L is for Lacking linesmen. Football Referee Simulator almost earned itself a Police Week article. Until Referee Simulator and Football Referee Simulator 26 arrive, Vladimir Pilashkun’s 2D effort has the ref sim genre pretty much to itself. Because you don’t get assistant referees for your seventy new pence, some of the trickiest decisions in FRS relate to throw-ins and offsides.

Using the following clues (the map above is purely decorative) in combination with Street View, work out my location.
G is for Games for a future Police Week? If there’s a Police Week in 2026, there’s a good chance the following three titles will – assuming they’re finished – figure in it. Bharat Police looks from a distance a lot like an Indian take on This Is the Police. According to the Steam blurb developer BharatPoliceGroup intends to grapple with India’s “unique social and cultural landscape” and depict a world in which “justice is never simple” which sounds promising.
