Right. I don't know anything about the streets of London (except that one of the streets in Monopoly doesn't actually exist).

But I am sad enough to know roughly most of the hotel fees.

It'll probably be one of Pentonville, Vine St, Piccadilly and Mayfair.

Pentonville is £50ph --- £650 hotel fee?
Vine St is £100ph--- £1000 hotel fee?
Piccadilly is £150ph --- £1250 hotel fee?
Mayfair is £200ph --- £2000 hotel fee.

Therefore, I'd say Pentonville Road?

Yeah, I've have to say I'd go with Pentonville as well. I alway try and get the three light blues when I'm playing.

However, as it's gone, and just in case, Old Kent Road?

Okay, not Brown, Light Blue, Orange, Yellow, Green or Dark Blue. That leaves Red and Pink. Must be one of the Squares then, Trafalger?

I'm not sure I really understand the question (bit late to say that now)..

So I'm going to say Trafalgar Square..



BAH. Too slow, but I take issue with the answer. Surely if Trafalgar's and Piccadilly's houses / hotels cost the same amount, then Piccadilly's give a better return?

The last one in each set costs a bit more, but also gives a better return, so Trafalger (the third red) would beat Piccadilly.

Right, easy one because I need someone to get it right before about 10AM tomorrow (Friday):

The Chelsea Flower Show is currently in progress, as my girlfriend keeps reminding me (cut the damn grass yourself woman, if you want it short), but where is it actually held? "Chelsea" is not a specific enough answer. ;)

Ahhh, an easy one there. They've been doing the beeb weather forecasts from there all week.

It's in the Royal Hospital...which is a soldier nursing and retirement home. :D

Ah, Matt, where've you been for the last few days? ;)

Spot on, your turn, I didn't know the forcasts had been coming from there. Ah well, I can have a lie in tomorrow after all! See you Monday... (off for the weekend)
