From Ladbroke Grove to Notting Hill

[venta]

Hello LJ. Are you looking for a way to waste time today?

You are?

Last night, Sally asked me whether I'd seen the Look for Longer posters on the Tube.

I had not.

Shame, she said, she couldn't solve the last few.

Eh?

Look, she said, it's online. It's a big picture[*] containing various images designed to represent Tube stations. The online version is clickable, and will tell you when you've solved them correctly.

Which explains why, at twenty to two this morning, Sally and I were sitting on the sofa with glasses of wine (and a cat, who was not helpful) shouting tube stations at each other.

You can find the puzzle here.

Warning: at least some of the ones I've found so far are a bit tenuous. I accept no responsibility. And if anyone can explain Hainault to me, that'd be lovely.

[*] Interestingly, as soon as I saw it, I said "I bet that's something to do with Virgin". It reminded me very much of a similar scene containing images representing bands which they produced a few years ago.

Got the telly, it's just the pig to go! I've been going through every other word for a pig I can think of (sow, hog, boar, pork), but no joy so far!

It's a bit cheeky as they could have used another word that they use more than once elsewhere in the puzzle.

Do you mean "another picture"? If not, I don't understand your clue at all (and I know the answer ;)

Badly explained.

Yeah - they could have used parts of other pictures used in this puzzle, for the pig clue.

Gah, that still doesn't make much sense - any suggestions of a better hint?

I think you should stop thinking of the pig as an animal and start thinking of it as food :)

Better clue than mine!

Doh, of course! That's all 75 done!
