"It's Canon"
The above section of our forum has been infiltrated by 10 Travelling Lemons.
If you find them could you message them to me please?
Thanks!

... Indeed, if I may make a full confession to you, I was quite convinced that the lemon letter from Meiringen was a hoax, and I allowed you to depart on that errand under the persuasion that some development of this sort would follow.

Oh so we're supposed to find the word LEMON as it was used in the canon stories?

This game originates from Cabin Pressure, the radio play that Benedict stars in. Discussion about this play can be found HERE.
Here are the rules as played in the play:
DOUGLAS: Not come across the Travelling Lemon, Martin, in all your professional experience? Well, player one strolls through a full passenger cabin, chatting to the adoring public of this or that topic of interest, and as he goes, he casually secretes somewhere where it can still be clearly seen, a lemon or other citrus fruit, as mutually agreed by the players and referees before match play commences, but I’m a traditionalist and favour a lemon.
So to adapt it here, I have 'hidden' lemons in posts already posted here. I secretly edited the posts & added the word 'lemon' somewhere. It's a treasure hunt type game & there are 10 all together to be found.
Mattlocked, you're streaking ahead here & have found 2 of them.
8 lemons left to find!

I just finished The Five Orange LEMON Pips, and didn't make the connection to the pips in TGG until I read of it in another thread in this forum. (Thanks, Davina!) It took me longer to figure out that pips means seeds than it did the meaning of the three letters that are so important to this story. I found the story's end somewhat unsatisfying as it didn't really explain much.

By mistake just found another one. You read and think "WTF?!"
"Judgement was passed down today from the Royal Courts of Justice which quashed the planning permission granted by the local lemon council for the Grade 2 listed building to be demolished and replaced by 8 separate dwellings. ....."
