Well done folks - really enjoyed it. My only suggestion, if you do something similar again would be to leave a clue at each of the locations in the riddle which add up to the final answer. Looking forward to the events this year :) Any answers online yet?

I arrived at Mortuary beach early Saturday 11th July to find Sarah & her son (and a couple of other people) busy digging 'all over' . Sarah said she had spent days there already so I decided not to join in although I knew it was definitely the right place but my ferry was booked for going across late that DAY (I'd already postponed it by a week to Clue Hunt!) By the time I reached Mortuary beach I'd spent hours, days and nights solving clues. One night I stayed awake all night working on solving it...forgetting to cook and do my normal work or housework. Along the way (literally) I encountered many others out and about on the treasure trail and at times I 'roped' in my neighbour and another good friend (who came out at 4.30am one morning looking for the Golden Queenie with me). I used reams of paper, a whole ink cartridge, a tank of fuel in my car and I discovered some places I hadn't ever been. It was really fun. THANK-YOU to the organisers for putting it together for us. I'd do it all again tomorrow!!! I would like to read other Hunter's tales and all the CORRECT ANSWERS. Please put the ‘official’ solution on line.

Also a trip to Peel on several occasions to search near the castle and on the prom. It was all good fun, I hope another is done soon!!!
