I'm away for three weeks from today so plenty of time to figure this one out.

Post by **Jeffers** » Sat Nov 02, 2019 9:27 pm

Have a good time. I might sit down with a piece of real paper and work out a route for it....

Post by **Jeffers** » Wed Nov 27, 2019 12:06 am

I think I might have shot myself in the foot with this one....
Can't see a direct route past Nacho.
If you can I'm open to hints, or I'll pass my turn.

I tried working back from Nymph and still got stuck that way too, via a couple of different routes....

I can't find a direct route either, it breaks down when I run out of vowels

You could try diverting via the backend of a cow?
