	I remember many years ago something in the Sun, daily newspaper a long running quiz, with cryptic clues for a place name in Great Britian. I am not clever enough to devise one myself, so how about if we all post a cyrptic clue for us to name a place, town or village. For example:- Not an old place for ships to sail into???? Newport, of course. But please try to make them harder Lol. Jenny
