The Foxer
The defoxing annexe's 'pub games' area is taking shape. We only have two games available at the moment, but they're both crackers. In our version of devil among the tailors the devil is a fender-fitted He 111 and the tailors are barrage balloons, and in our take on shove ha'penny the board represents an aircraft carrier flight deck and the ha'pennies are miniature wheels-up Westland Wyverns (Obviously, you score by touching the lines not avoiding them).

Foxer Fact #813
Brodie Price, the creator of several huge 'geoglyph foxers' in Western Australia's Gibson Desert, often incorporates real vehicles in his collages. His last puzzle - 'Industrial Fires and Explosions' - made use of a Kazan Ansat, a Handley Page Halifax, and a 2-10-4 'Texas' steam loco.
