Day 12 – Sunday 12th December

Clue: A bit fishy?

Answer: Moore Place Hotel (not sure of this – I was thinking 'more plaice' - any other ideas?)

The Moore Place Hotel is in Bedfordshire, near Milton Keynes

Going by Kisto's post I would say it is definitely The Talbot Inn, as a vegetarian I had no idea there was a fish called Talbot but apparently there is.

‎The following appears as the clue on their Facebook page, so definitely The Talbot Inn:

'Thin on battle'.....that's an anagram of the Day 12 hotel in our Christmas Advent Competition just in case you're wondering!

How strange. I cannot find any mention anywhere of a fish called Talbot. Perhaps the clue has nothing to do with fish?

And a mention in wikipedia of 'Talbot's blenny', but not a lot of other mentions!

Talbot ?

I wonder if the quiz setter was confusing himself with the word Turbot.

No there's definitely a fish called a Talbot cos I googled it as I'd never heard of it before http://www.google.co.uk/images?rlz=1T4PCTA_enGB311GB287&q=talbot+fish&um=1&ie=UTF-8&source=univ&ei=pcIETauIEcTwsgbN2LTpCQ&sa=X&oi=image_result_group&ct=title&resnum=2&ved=0CCcQsAQwAQ&biw=1259&bih=536
