Charity Here I am

Post by Davycc »

OK so here goes. £10 will be donated to the charity of the winners choice.

Somewhere on the LUFCTALK Members Map I've inserted the words "Here I am" This is only visible when you get to street level so you need to know the exact location to find it.

I'll add clues at random times so keep checking.

You have post the exact location to win. The winner will be the first person to post the location in this thread. PMs do not count.

Clues

1. This location was the site of a world changing event.

Got the first clue slightly wrong. I was looking in the Pearl Harbor area.

Thank you.

Clue 1) sets it up but could be anything anywhere.
2) No idea.
3) had me looking up Oliver Hardy, Daniel Lambert etc.
4) No idea.
5) Manhattan (Project) eventually. And that tied in The Japanese Empire (4) and Fat Man (3). I looked at Hiroshima first but then I found out that Fat Man was dropped on Nagasaki.

I've PMd you the charity details as it's a bit much to put on here. :)
