Hehe, so did mine ! It is rather exciting, isn't it? In my opinion, I think physical, tangible items are essential in ARGs. It's a good job we have Macavity to microwave these items first to see what happens before we try it

Curses! It took me this long to realise that I had never put in my address on the SC site. So no pamphlet for me.
Arrgh...

Anton said something that just gave me an idea about the will. He said he was sure it must have something to do with the lines. I had thought about the lines in the middle of the page before but couldn't think of any way to use them. I had completely ignored the lines around the edge of the page, i just thought they were there to make it look old. I was thinking that if we extend the lines into the page we could take the letters or words that they cross to reveal a message.
I haven't had any luck with it so far but maybe someone else will.

Anton said that Sarah said that the capitals were just the style of writing at the time, but that she couldn't explain the lines on the side of the page.

I have the beginnings of a solution - the line indentations to the left, right, top, bottom and middle all join together. They create intersections on letters. Am trying to work out the intersections.
Here's a jpg of the lines intersecting.

I've done that a few times now. I'm sure we are on the right track but it looks different every time i do it.

Yeah, I've been trying too. the problem is, is your line is off even a hair, you intersect the wrong letter.

I was doing it in photoshop all afternoon with no luck. Using pen and paper has turned out to be a lot more precise, a lot of detail is lost on the scan. I still don't have the answer but i think i have most of the correct letters now.
