I've got the more obvious ones, but I'm definitely going to need the help of a map this time especially with the LO!

77/100 and I'm stumped, even with a map and list.

And I want to take issue with Finchley as 'Finchley' by itself is not a station on the LU or LO.

Is no one else doing this now?  9 to go and I'm scrapping the bottom of the barrel, I need:

- the lobster with the crown
- the circle by the snail
- the arrow on the pub wall
- the two men
- the plastered mountain
- the plastered pot hole
- the guy chasing the swan
- the pile of e's
- the thing next to the pint of beer

I now got the lobster, but have to take issue again as it's not the proper name of the station on the TfL» (Transport for London - about) network

I feel so happy, I finally finished Grin
