A nice simple idea making maths relevant and so easily adaptable for any location. Easy to differentiate to different ability levels using different loci too. Thanks Harriet - just round the corner!

A super idea, and so meaningful, at least if one lives in Greater Manchester. So I will adopt it for my local area, and lots of free maps are available from our Tourist Office. (I've used them for Scale questions, and working out the average distance travelled to college, and now I have another use for them.)

We used this in our departmental meeting, and it went down very well! Nice to see Loci and Constructions used in a pratical context. Thanks for sharing
