If it's the castle I'm thinking of, which is to the south of Stuttgart and perched on a rock with a little bridge across to it, then probably not that far. About 60km?

Apologies all, I think I missed the first notification for a reply. My bad. I will be more observant, scouts' honour.

This is the first and last time I'll do a, "To the nearest X" question

I take it that it is a 'Too high' again!

It depends what one means by "to the nearest 10km" I guess - nobody say it was the nearest 10km starting at 0km

Perhaps he should have asked how many miles (or days) from Altnabrec to Wick Sheriff Court? :frown:

I mean we've had 130 (higher!), and 150 (lower!) so there's not much deduction left involved...

140km

Bingo, won't be doing that again. I make it 142km to be precise. Over to you

Trackman · Monday at 23:36

For once, I do have a question!

What links the following people?

Suzanne Danielle
Holly Johnson
Christopher Biggins
Uri Geller
Una Stubbs

D6130 · Tuesday at 00:18

They have all played in pantomime?

Greenheart · Tuesday at 07:07

Appeared or mentioned in Rentaghost?

None of them I'm afraid

Acathater · Tuesday at 13:32

Did they all believe in some nonsense like scientology?

styles · Tuesday at 13:38

I was reading up on Uri Geller recently and the two things which came to mind were...

Do they all own islands, or some land in Scotland?

Something to do with being sued or suing other people?

D1511 · Tuesday at 14:32

Were their partners all Scottish?

None of those.

I'll post some more names once 24 hours have passed since my initial post.

Trackman · Wednesday at 12:33

More names:

Sir David Frost
Clement Freud
Gary Numan
Bonnie Langford
Julian Lloyd Webber
Phil Collins

styles · Wednesday at 12:40

They're all a fan of Collins' Something In The Air Tonight?

Ashley Hill · Wednesday at 12:40

Have they all appeared in quiz shows?

MotCO · Wednesday at 16:53

All appeared in a picture /photo, or album cover?
