On Sunday 18th September 22 people met Vince Dean at The Maypole car park on a beautiful sunny afternoon.
They arrived in 7 cars (and two bicycles!) and included men, women and children.
Vince had devised an ingenious Hunt with some very obscure clues. One or two had some of us running through Northney like headless chickens.
He managed to steer us to all four corners of the island, picking up letters at different locations. These letters then made a word and you had to have the word to qualify for the prize.
Once finished we returned to The Maypole, handed in our entries, and enjoyed the sunshine, with a welcome beverage, until everyone was back. Well done Colin and Anita (the cyclists) you weren't too far behind the last car!
The winner was drawn from a hat and the winners were the Brydon family.
Many thanks to Vince, it must have taken a long time and effort.
And the word was......JUMELAGE!
