6 Archway

[burnhal]

3 Shoreditch - from Oranges and lemons- when I grow rich say the bells of Shoreditch

[Neutron]

Would No; 7 be White City ?

( I had thought of 'Bank' station for No: 3)


Still thinking about the others....

Good luck.

[Neutron]

Hi again,
would No; 5 be Snaresbrook?

[burnhal]

tentative stab at 4 Rickmansworth. Rick is a pile of hay- could promoting growth be a mans worth?

[burnhal]

Aha!! 1. Sandwich is a Kentish Town!

[rogerr]

7 Walthamstow Central==there is a dog track there

[maggie55]

Very clever burnhal - was not thinking of Sandwich the town.
I had thought of ricksmanworth but not sure about the promoting growth bit but worth a try.
No 5 - spelt the word wrong - it should be stream but snaresbrook sounds right.
6 & 3 sound good
N0 7 - does White City have a dog track?
I have got Bank for another one - Deposit your savings
thanks all - still working on no 8

[burnhal]

no 8 the only other station I can find that might be river related is Tooting Bec - beck being a small river up north. But I cant connect Tooting to Raffles

[maggie55]

Thanks Rogerr - I didn't know London had a dog track but it fits in with crucial/central

[maggie55]

I am trying to find a connection for Raffle's - there is Stanford Brook - Watford and Woodford
Will keep trying
Thanks for help

8. raffles rivulet=famous raffles hotel relates to sir thomas stamford raffles and rivulet can also be a brook so the answer is stamford brook

2. There is a station East India, and Bharat is what Indian folks call India, but cant make East fit in with Bridge player.

[maggie55]

Thank you martinschool - that solves that one!
Jane mark2 - there is a bridge player called Bharat but not sure what the connection is to an underground station

thanks to all

[martinschool]

2)there are two pairs of partners in bridge referred to as East-West and the other ones as North-South. AS you say the hindi word

for INDIA is Bharat= East India

[maggie55]
