    I believe you have to explain why you thinks its so.. i mean explain the thought behind it.
    Only it would be too easy just to guess at.

    I'm rubbish at this.......but it wasn't a guess as in a stab in the dark. There is a road in a field and the barman is blue. Blue-field-road.

    You could be right.. all the elements are there. But i reckon its more significant that there is a bar scene & whats that small figure to the right.. a scarecrow?

    We shall see..

    The green background I assume is a field. Thus Chef+eel+field = Sheffield

    The answer is just Sheffield. It is Chef-eel-d. The eel is in the shape of a D, not a field.

    Thats it nice and simple.

    Sorry short notice will concentrate more on the weekend one.

    The yellow bits are electricity sparks to differentiate the eel from a worm or snake.

    But then you wouldnt need the eel.. you could just have Chef + field.

    Now there is a blast from the past. I went to one of the teaching training places at Uni back in the early 00s, they STILL had rooms full of these things, obviously with the intention that they would learn to program on them and pass this cutting edge knowledge onto children.
