Re: 1.19 - Knight Moves

It is an odd choice for a location isn’t it, I’ve no idea why it was chosen, but like I said above, I’ve always thought something was amiss with the roads at this location... and that's why. :lol: The photo you speak of is from an episode of ‘MaCgyver’, I can’t remember which one, once I found this ...
