TinyTear - it's not Essex. Try looking for what it is: Essex flag plus crown. Once you know where you know the title.

The county flag isn't Essex, and it isn't a county anymore, but still a postal area. Try googling heraldry three swords, crown.

the hiker is one I got.

google the length on the sign, then google the trail that has that length and then it came up with a book...

Any clues for the lifebuoy?

Oh help! I've tried the googling tips on this thread but got nowhere at all. Am stuck on 6 of these darned things and can't stop thinking about them! It's very addictive...

If anyone cared to give me clues (the googling suggestions here have not helped so far) on the following I'd be grateful :

Hiking girl
Lifebuoy
Electric shock man
7 murders
Definitely here
The shield with the swords on it

Thanks :)

Tiny - for the lifebuoy: it's a synonym on what's written on it together with what it is.

I used Word to come up the synonym.

The orange one foxed me for a bit but (as ever) once you get the answer it's oh so simple :)
So with the oranges one: admittedly it's a very weird pic but it's a boy, he's eating an orange and he is also rather orange. So he is an ....
(it's a YA book)

The ferry one...it's a children's classic.

Cacofonix - the ferry is very famous in literature

As for the oranges, you are looking to describe the figure by colour and person (it's a children's book).
