underneath that fussy façade? Sometimes funny, often profound, and
always revealing, this book of quotes and comments, from more than
50 Poirot novels and short stories, gives an entertaining glimpse
of the man behind the moustache, and the wit and wisdom of the
Queen of Crime who created him. Includes an exclusive essay by
Agatha Christie from the archives on her love/hate relationship

Isle of Wight Walkers' Map at 32k scale with challenge routes and
walking trails highlighted. OS 50k scale mapping is expanded in
size to produce a 32k map. The OS features, text and logos are now
50% larger making them much easier to read under outdoor
conditions. Isle of Wight Challenge Route (66 miles) is specially
highlighted in green and white so that the route stands out against
the OS background map. Then we add the Earl Mountbatten Hospice's
Walk (26.5 miles) highlighted in gold and white. A large range of
gps surveyed walking trails are then highlighted in grey and white.
The result is an easy to read `OSlike' map with walking trails
specially highlighted. We then split the island into East (cover
side) and West (reverse side) with a ten mile common overlap to the
two sides; meaning you will only have to turn the map over if you
are undertaking the longest Challenge or Earl Mountbatten routes.
The result is a double sided 840mm by 694mm OSlike Super-Durable
Map. We then print the map design on a 100 micron plastic substrate
using a special UV curing inks process on the UK's only press
capable of using this latest technology. The printed map sheets are
then folded using a special concertina map fold to its pocket size
of 230mm by 120mm. The result is the Isle of Wight Walkers' Map. A
lightweight map that is both accurate and easy to read and use.
Super-Durable means your map is waterproof and tearproof, and fully
recyclable. This map will survive anything your Isle of Wight
Challenges can throw at it and afterwards will fold up like new.
Buying the Isle of Wight Walkers' Map also entitles you to receive
the Custom Map digital edition of the map as a free download from
Discovery Walking Guides.
For the best adventures, use the best map. The Moorish white
villages of the Alpujarras are well known to day trippers from the
Costa del Sol. For walkers this is an idyllic region with
stone-laid donkey trails linking the tipico villages and stretching
up the southern slopes of the Sierra Nevada to Mulhacen; at 3,483
metres the highest mountain peak on mainland Spain. From Spring to
the end of Autumn this is a paradise for hikers, whether you are
walking from village to village sampling the local delicacies or
tackling the challenging major ascents. One thing you will know is
that using the Alpujarras Tour & Trail Map will help you plan,
and get the best out of, your adventures. On a large 960mm by
700mm, double sided, map sheet at 40k scale this map has all the
detail you need including 20 and 100 metre contours, combined with
altitude shading, giving you a true feel to this impressive
landscape stretching from west of Lanjaron to Ohanes in the east
taking in the Poqueira and Trevelez valleys, while going north to
include Mulhacen and Veleta mountain peaks along with the Sierra
Nevada ski area. The GR240, GR142 & GR7 (official long distance
hiking routes) are specially highlighted (in green) along with all
the walking routes from Walk! the Alpujarras guidebook (in red).
Our new edition Alpujarras Tour & Trail Map covers an area of
70 kms (E-W) by 28 kms (N-S); more than twice the land area of our
earlier editions. A special 'Concertina Map Fold' makes Tour &
Trail Maps easy to use, and more importantly easy to fold back to
their handy pocket size. Digital editions of Alpujarras Tour &
Trail Map are available for phone apps by Viewranger/OutdoorActive
and LocusMap. A digital edition of Alpujarras Tour & Trail
Custom Map for Garmin users is available as a free digital download

Custom Map can be loaded into Garmin gps units, and used in Garmin
Basecamp and Google Earth. Tour & Trail Super-Durable Maps are
printed on a specially finished plastic substrate using special
inks which produces a lightweight map that feels like silk while
being both water-proof and incredibly tough so that after even the
toughest of adventures your Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map will
fold up like new. Super-Durable Maps come with a 2 year adventurous
use wear and tear guarantee. All the materials used for this map
are 100% recyclable in category 2 HDPE.
National 3 Peaks Challenge Maps. Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and
Snowdon at 20k scale. Waterproof, tearproof and 100% recyclable
820mm by 420mm double sided map sheet. Taking OS mapping at 50k
scale we expand the mapping to produce 20k scale maps of the three
challenge peaks, Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon. By expanding
the OS mapping the features of names, roads, tracks and trails are
more than doubled in size making them easier to read under
Challenge conditions. We then add the Challenge Routes, specially
highlighted to make them stand out against the OS map background
information and add in additional information that will help your
challenge. Each map covers the region to show the access roads as
well as the walking routes. Ben Nevis includes the Glen Nevis
Information Centre starting point and Glen Nevis Youth Hostel
starting point. Scafell Pike includes the Wasdale and Seathwaite
Challenge Routes. Snowdon includes the Pyg Track, Miners Track and
Llamberis Challenge Routes. Each peak is a 420mm by 420mm OSlike
map mounted on a double sided map sheet of 840mm by 420mm. The map
designs are then printed on a 100 micron plastic substrate using UV
cured inks on the UK's only press capable of using this latest
technology. The result is a lightweight map that is both waterproof
and tearproof, and fully recyclable, that will survive anything
your 3 Peaks Challenge can throw at it and afterwards will fold up
like new.
All hiking challenges are personal, yourself against the required
completion time. A successful Challenge is a personal triumph. With
its easy access, and ten hours target time, the Surrey 3 Peaks
Challenge can be completed in a single (long) day if you are within
commuting distance of Dorking. The Surrey Hills is an 'Area of
Outstanding National Beauty'. It is difficult to think of anywhere
more picturesque in which to undertake a walking Challenge. With
all this natural beauty to hand do not forget that this is a
Challenge, requiring a good level of fitness, good navigation,
suitable clothing and footwear, along with refreshments and water
to consume during our Challenge adventure. If you are new to
Challenge walks you might consider our Rutland Water Challenge a
first step in your long distance walking before tackling the Surrey
3 Peaks. Surrey 3 Peaks Challenge Map and Guide is a 25k scale
OSlike map with the Challenge route specially highlighted. We
licence OS 50k scale mapping which is then doubled in size to
produce an OSlike 25k map but the features, text and logos are now
doubled in size making them much easier to read under Challenge
conditions. Our preferred Challenge Route, and two slightly
different alternatives, are added and specially highlighted so that
our route stands out against the OSlike 25k map. Gps track and
waypoints for the three routes are available to download as gpx
files in a zip file. The 50 waypoints of our Challenge route are
highlighted on the map. These gpx files can be used with all gps

Garmin users. On the reverse of the map sheet is our Locator Map
using OS Opendata showing the location of, and access to, Surrey 3
Peaks relative to a wide area of southern England. The result is a

design on a 100 micron plastic substrate using a special UV curing
inks process on the UK's only press capable of using this latest
technology. The result is a lightweight map that is both waterproof
and tearproof, and fully recyclable, that will survive anything

out against the OS background map. Then we add the additional
detail you might need including the popular Challenge starting

694mm, map sheet. All 193 miles (308 kilometres) of the Wainwright
route along with its alternatives are highlighted across 9 map
sections at 40k scale. Ordnance Survey accuracy is combined with

oxygenation inks to produce a lightweight, Super-Durable,

C2C can subject it to and still fold up like new at the end of each
day. In addition to the Super-Durable printed map, Discovery
Walking Guides offers you a free `C2C Digital Resources Package'.
Simply follow the instructions on the map to receive a download
