Correct!

Anybody else got one ?

Colin Bishop · « **Reply #1626 on:** May 06, 2023, 08:21:39 pm »

OK, try this one.

Is that, that iron pillar that does rust..... India maybe?

Tug Fanatic · « **Reply #1628 on:** May 07, 2023, 09:05:23 am »

The famous pillar in India isn't a spiral I think.

Is this one Delphi, Greece?

Colin Bishop · « **Reply #1629 on:** May 07, 2023, 10:20:05 am »

Yes, Delphi, it's an amazing thing. Been there twice.

Colin

Martin (Admin) · « **Reply #1630 on:** May 07, 2023, 10:30:34 am »

Which one is this then?

Tug Fanatic · « **Reply #1631 on:** May 07, 2023, 11:45:21 am »

I think that is the one in Delhi, India - or extremely similar to it.

Did you consult the Oracle? Any pearls of wisdom to pass on?

Colin Bishop · « **Reply #1633 on:** May 07, 2023, 05:22:58 pm »

The Oracle's prophecies are Delphic... It was all Greek to me!

I don't blame anyone for not guessing this, but CERTAINLY most of the people here should at least identify the ship!

Nick ...could it be the Royal Yacht Brittana arriving in Auckland....New Zealand?

An old hulk now rotting in Leith.

Can't remember the original name but pretty sure it's now known as Thunder Bay in Ontario, Canada?

Correct! Britannia came all the way to the Lakehead in 1959 when the new St Lawrence Seaway opened. The only thing still present from this photo is the breakwater.

Here's one for history buffs.

Bl**dy Tourists everywhere

all walking downhill ...obviously

the Tour Bus drove them to the top of the hill by the Turret Tower building

So we are looking for a Medival Town with a Tower on the hill.....the Tour Guide No 6 could tell us

if he is not lost

Derek your sunny disposition is a joy, not. Many places rely on tourism to survive. Have some empathy

Tug Fanatic · « **Reply #1642 on:** May 25, 2023, 02:59:18 pm »

Nuremberg?
It was a good few years ago that I was there.

How come they let you Off

Tug Fanatic · « **Reply #1644 on:** May 25, 2023, 04:25:50 pm »

Charisma, good looks, intelligence and great modesty.

jaymac · « **Reply #1645 on:** May 25, 2023, 06:52:54 pm »

Not to mention friends in Argentina

dougal99 · « **Reply #1646 on:** May 25, 2023, 08:54:12 pm »

Yup, Imperial Castle Nuremberg

Martin (Admin) · « **Reply #1647 on:** August 01, 2023, 06:19:55 pm »

Came across this today .... Where in the world?

rnli12 · « **Reply #1648 on:** August 01, 2023, 07:57:11 pm »

Ah - Rocher Saint Michel south of France reminded me of St Micheals Mount in Cornwall

Martin (Admin) · « **Reply #1649 on:** August 01, 2023, 08:00:23 pm »

Correct, Saint-Michel d'Aiguilhe (St. Michael of the Needle) is a chapel in Aiguilhe, near Le Puy-en-Velay, France

.... how did you know that?!
