Quiz Time (General Knowledge & Out of Area)

[Gwynant]

               With all the clues about bees and the model hives situated on the wall behind the seat I looked up beekeeping centres in North Wales and came up with Furnace Farm, Bodnant, which is near Eglwsbach ("small church" which doesn't exactly  fit in with your "large church" clue!) and also Llysfasi College near Ruthin, but I am not confident about either.

[DaveR]

You seem to be specialising in tough questions lately, Hugo! 

[Hugo]

You're so near Gwynant and getting warmer with the Furnace but it's not there.       Next time I sit on the bench I'll have a glass of Mead and look across the road at the large Church but where will I be?

It's only easy if you know it Dave,  but there have been loads of clues.              

[Hugo]

I must admit that I've thrown in a red herring but I've also given the location and name of the place so it should be easy now.

I've driven through Eglwysbach many times and always wondered where the little church that gave it's name to the village was as I've never seen it.   The earliest written record of St Martin’s Church dates from 1254, but the church was rebuilt in c.1782, after the previous one became dilapidated so perhaps that's why there's no longer a small church there

[Gwynant]

             It's "The Bee" in Eglwsbach Hugo. I've just checked on Google Maps and the area with the steps hadn't been cleaned up and the new seat fitted yet when the camera van went through, but there is a large church across the road and the house with a load of greenery on the porch in your photo in the background. I don't think I have been up there since the seventies. Good one!

[Hugo]

I knew that you would get it in the end so well done.   You were so near with your first guess and I'm sure that you would have got it then except for my mischief making with the size of the Church          

Can't make it too easy but there were a few be's in the clues

Three men in a boat, where are they?

[Hugo]

It looks a bit like Porth Dinllaen and the Ty Coch Pub seems to be where thet are heading to.     Z**

[hollins]

Well done Hugo. I didn't think that one would last long and I was right!
Action man is now safely back from his latest adventure!

Three minutes is pretty quick, almost as long as my first drink at the Ty Coch.     Z**

[hollins]

Mr Hollins says cheers Hugo. They also enjoyed a couple of beers there and this lovely sunset.

[Hugo]

What a lovely place to have a pint.    I'll drink to that.    Z**    Z**
