Puzzle 207 



I was travelling from Chesterton to Newcastle recently when I came across a sign which had fallen off its post at the crossroads.

It was marked to Newcastle, Chesterton, Knutton and Silverdale.

Unfortunately I didn't know which road to take to Newcastle and had hoped the sign would help.

Luckily I had a brainwave which helped me put the sign back pointing correctly to Newcastle.

What was my idea?

Can you find five countries hidden in the following paragraph:

Dominic had a certain way with animals – he could almost talk to them. By tickling it under the chin, a rabbit would roll over and let its belly be tickled. This technique was sometimes used to good effect in gaining trust, and allowed a vital yearly treatment to be performed safely. The removal of nits. Using a vet approved shampoo to clean the fur (and not a blend of malt and water!).
