Can I cheat?


I want to recreate the blog post that a Twitter friend wrote after he had tested our new Ludlow Trail...... here it is in its entirety. And if you want to read his other musings, then go find him on http://shropsdan.wordpress.com/

He said.....


Recently a chum of mine Birgit and I answered a call from Treasure Trails via twitter to trial a new treasure trail in Ludlow.

Having never really looked at a treasure trail or really heard of them before I was intrigued and curious about what it was that we had undertaken. Amanda at Treasure Trails emailed us our clue sheets and we were ready for our afternoon out. Our particular treasure trail was based around a murder and we were given a list of suspects and murder weapons and each clue helped eliminate either a suspect or weapon.

So Monday afternoon arrived and Birgit and I along with Watson her Labradoodle arranged to meet in front of the castle and off we set. We both are fairly local to Ludlow and some of the clues came easy to us, but there were some rather lateral clues that took some time to figure out. Upon solving each clue we would cheer each other and set off following out directions to the next clue location. We got to see some amazing places and buildings that usually you would never stop and look at nor take note of.

We also learnt about the history of the town and I will be boring my chums about the facts that I learnt whilst on my trail for some time. I would defiantly do another trail again and certainly buy the Ludlowtrail when it becomes live as presents for people.

Thank you Treasure Trails, for a wonderful afternoon, and for showing us around a town I thought I knew so well.
