On Annie Mole's excellent blog page, I came across the latest post of which has an image done by someone externally with supposedly 70 tube station names all illustrated somehow inside the image. I had a crack at it to see if I could figuere out all of the stations but I've only got 27 so far! Anyone want to have a go?

Here is the link... http://i.imgur.com/MQ4Or.jpg

I will open a seperate topic to put the answers in - go post there if you find some.

Don't post here that way those who want to have a fresh attempt can.

Not a problem, sounds like a good idea. I've got a few so far but obviously NOT saying on this thread :wink:

I'm going to ignore this thread, and do it privately to see how many I can get. I love this type of thing.

Has anyone heard of a guy called Mike Wilks? I think you need to be around a certain age (mine) to remember his books being for sale in shops. His most famous one was The Ultimate Alphabet.

Have a look at his Wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ultimate_Alphabet. My wife and I have all of his books, and are nowhere NEAR getting all of the things in each painting. I like to think that Wilks inspired the artist who did this one.

(And I've moved this into Quizzes and Games, as that's what it is after all).
