It officially starts on Friday, but Eileen published this year's list a few days early over on her blog, A Bracelet of Days. There are 25 items to be found between 1st December and the spring equinox on 21st March next year.
I spent last weekend in Lincoln, checking out the university with my daughter and unknowing took a couple of photos that would have been perfect for the hunt, if only I'd taken them a few weeks later.
This is the University Library (no. 11 on the list), converted from an old warehouse:

All the prompts are open to interpretation, so it'll be interesting to see what the other participants come up with, especially when they live in countries other than the UK. Please do join us this winter.
Those are great finds & I bet you could squeeze ahead of the start date ... I would really like to see a shop selling Harry Potter stuff. We had a one of the branches of our library re-do it's old building with a lot of glass, I didn't think I would like but it was tastefully done - uumm maybe I could use it for the WPSH.
