        Thanks Barr1e. My next entry is another holiday snap from somewhere abroad, plenty of clues in this photo taken in 2007. (I have blurred a poster in the new ampitheatre as this would have made it too easy).
        Where is it?

        Regards,
        Geoff.

          Woohoo - somewhere I think I recognise, at long last!

          Is it the Teatro del Romano in Cartagena?

            Well done Caz, it is Cartagena in Spain showing the old Roman ampitheatre and a more modern one, with the harbour in the background. If I remember correctly, the old ampitheatre was carved into the rocky hillside and was rediscovered in 1987 after being under a bullring for approx a hundred years.

            Over to Caz for the next photo in the challenge.

            Regards,
            Geoff.

                Thanks Geoff - my brother has a villa about an hour down the road near Puerto de Mazarron, and I enjoyed Cartagena so much we went twice...

                Mine's another scanned photo, from one of my first solo trips:

                  That's an easy one Caz, the name of the place is in the picture!

                    Help - what did I leave in? I thought I'd cloned all place names out?

                      Since I seem to have left a vital clue in the last picture which appears to have killed the thread (although I wasn't after Bruparck, I wanted someone to say it was Heisel Stadium - taken from the top of the Atomium, but that's an aside).

                      Have checked this one thoroughly!

                          England - a canal in the west country. That do?

                            It looks like the end of the canal. But I can only guess Bridgewater and Taunton, but I don't think it is correct.

                              Could be the North Cornwall and Devon border area.
