Hi all,
Finally got Witches Of Chiswick for my birthday and enjoyed it
immensely, except for a teensy error (which might be a typesetting
mistake)
Will is in Whitechapel, East London and tells Barry they have to head
north-east to Buckingham Palace (or Chiswick, which is Barry's
suggestion).
North-EAST from Whitechapel takes you out to Walthamstow & Essex kinda
area.
Do we think it should have been North-West and was cocked up?

Del

Yep, looks like you are right. Damn I should have spotted that!

Give that man a Jaffa cake or many.

I'm working my way through Armageddon 3: The Suburban Book of the Dead again
currently. There's one instance of "should of" syndrome in there that really
winds me up every time. I've even been tempted to grab a biro and cross out
"of" and handwrite "have" instead Smile

Ta, but I'm on a bit of a diet Smile
The more I think about it, the more I think due West is nearer the
mark...
I don't have a map of London to check...

PS - sorry if two similar messages arrive. Dodgy Irish ISP (or phone
network) to blame!<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
