[sparkin]

Crackpot Cave?
I am not very familiar with anything in Europe.

"Crackpot" ... no

something Cave ... yes

[dcm1]

The only other one I can come up with is "Cliff Force Cave".

[corbie3]

White Scar Cave?

[sparkin]

The only other one I can come up with is "Cliff Force Cave".

Neither "cliff" nor "force" is in it.

[sparkin]

White Scar Cave?

That's the one - over to you ! :)

[dcm1]

That was a good one.

[corbie3]

A hard one!
Another wain coming up shortly then I'll need to leave it with you and go to bed- it's late here and work in the morning.

[corbie3]

No.

If not Scotland or Greece, then presumably Europe ?

[corbie3]

It just looked European - not sure why. :)

No, not in the UK.

[Roy Mathers]

A NATO country?

[corbie3]

A NATO country?

Yes. That's an original question!

[DDCSD]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

[Kendoway]

Happy Thanksgiving to you too Derek!

US?

[corbie3]

Happy Thanksgiving to you all over the pond.

[Roy Mathers]

Happy Thanksgiving to you too Derek!

US?


If you're referring to the picture, he's already said that it's in Europe.

[Kendoway]

Yeah, just read back and deleted my post. Thanks Roy.

[Kendoway]

Spain?

[Roy Mathers]

Yes. That's an original question!

I thought I'd make you work a bit and find out what they were!:D

[Roy Mathers]

East of Strasbourg?

[corbie3]

Spain?

No.

East of Strasbourg?

No.

[corbie3]

Happy Thanksgiving to you too Derek!

US?

Sorry about that- yes I missed it. No, not US.

[Roy Mathers]

France?

[corbie3]

France?

Yes.

[sparkin]

Is it in a castle ?

[corbie3]

Is it in a castle ?

No, not in a castle.

[tomd]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

[Roy Mathers]

South of Bourges?

[corbie3]

South of Bourges?

Yes.

[Roy Mathers]

Near Toulouse?

[corbie3]

Near Toulouse?

Depends what you mean by near- somewhere between 200 miles and 500 miles from Toulouse.

[Roy Mathers]

East of Toulouse?

[corbie3]

East of Toulouse?

No.

[Roy Mathers]

A coastal town?

[RandallC]

Is it a fortress?

[corbie3]

A coastal town?

No.

Is it a fortress?

No.

[sparkin]

Is it in an abbey, cathedral or church sort of place ?

[corbie3]

Is it in an abbey, cathedral or church sort of place ?

No.
But there is a small chapel not far from this which is part of the same place.

[Sir Plug]

Limoges?

[corbie3]

Limoges?

No. But getting closer!

[Sir Plug]

Poitiers?

[Roy Mathers]

Tours?

[corbie3]

Poitiers?

No.

Tours?

No.

[monty28428]

South of Poitiers ?

[monty28428]

West of Poitiers ?

[monty28428]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Happy Turkey Day to you as well Derek!

Getting closer to my Dec. 1st guess :-)

[Roy Mathers]

Closer to Tours or Limoges?

[corbie3]

South of Poitiers ?

West of Poitiers ?

Closer to Tours or Limoges?

South of Limoges.

[sparkin]

Is it at a winery ?

[monty28428]

West of Poitiers ????

[Roy Mathers]

North of Peyngnac?

[DDCSD]

Happy Turkey Day to you as well Derek!

Getting closer to my Dec. 1st guess :-)


:lol::lol:

That's my sister's guess as well. If my wife hasn't had the baby by then, they're going to induce her (on Dec 1st), so you might end up being right! She's out of room and in a fair amount of pain.

[corbie3]

Is it at a winery ?

No.
West of Poitiers ????

Sorry Monty- no, not west of Poitiers.

North of Peyngnac?

I don't know that one Roy- did you mean Peyrignac? In which case no, not north- you are very close now though.

[corbie3]

Here is a clue as I have to retire soon- this is not in a town or city. It is of historical significance.

[sparkin]

Lascaux ?

[corbie3]

Lascaux ?

Very close Sean. This place is usually one of the circuit of tourist attractions around Lascaux in the Vezere valley.

[sparkin]

La-Roque-Saint-Christophe ?

[Roy Mathers]

Perigord?

[corbie3]

La-Roque-Saint-Christophe ?

Good guess! But it's the other Troglodyte site (of the two major cave villages in the area).

[corbie3]

Perigord?

I think it is included in the Black Perigord region.

[sparkin]

Les Eyzies de Tayac

[corbie3]

Les Eyzies de Tayac

No. This place was last continuously inhabited hundreds of years ago (from prehistoric times) but was lived in from time to time until a few decades ago. Together with the one you mentioned it is the largest and most visited of the Troglodyte (cave dwellers) villages.

[sparkin]

Is it Le bout du chemin - Village troglodyte de la Madeleine, here:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/neko_no_kuni/2573309647/

[corbie3]

Is it Le bout du chemin - Village troglodyte de la Madeleine, here:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/neko_no_kuni/2573309647/

Correct!
Over to you Sean.

[sparkin]

Correct!
Over to you Sean.

That was a good one - literally no clue whatsoever right up to the end, and still in a bit of a daze. Must be a 9 on the Moenkopi scale! :):)

I have nothing fresh, so it's open to the first taker.

[monty28428]

:lol::lol:

That's my sister's guess as well. If my wife hasn't had the baby by then, they're going to induce her (on Dec 1st), so you might end up being right! She's out of room and in a fair amount of pain.

Oh good that way she can hate her sister more than me :-)

Nice going Sean!

[sparkin]

Oh good that way she can hate her sister more than me :-)

Nice going Sean!

Hats off to Roy, Monty and SirPlug too I think for narrowing down. If it hadn't been for the time zone effect this would've likely gone to Roy.

[monty28428]

Well the 200-500 miles certainly threw me off........ I believe Paul meant kilometers :-)

[Roy Mathers]

Hats off to Roy, Monty and SirPlug too I think for narrowing down. If it hadn't been for the time zone effect this would've likely gone to Roy.

Thank you Sean:oops:

[Roy Mathers]

Well the 200-500 miles certainly threw me off........ I believe Paul meant kilometers :-)


Yes - Google maps says it's 201 kilometres!

[corbie3]

Yes - Google maps says it's 201 kilometres!

It was a guess rather than anything more accurate- anyway, it depends which roads you take ;)

[Roy Mathers]

Remind me not to come on a trip with you!:D

[NigelD]

Remind me not to come on a trip with you!:D
I think he drives a petrol tanker Roy :lol:

[Roy Mathers]

:D:D

[jacuff]

I have nothing fresh, so it's open to the first taker.

Here's something fresh to keep it going. WAIN...

[Roy Mathers]

Tennessee?

[glhs509]

Leaving a few clues in the image, I'd venture to guess Lincoln County Courthouse

[jacuff]

Tennessee?
Yes

Leaving a few clues in the image, I'd venture to guess Lincoln County Courthouse
That's it. I figured it might could take a little bit longer without leaving a little bit of the Lincoln Theater clue. Over to you.

[glhs509]

Thanks Justin...
And another quickie to keep things moving....
WAIN?

[sparkin]

Were you at the lily pond ?

[glhs509]

I was!

[sparkin]

That would be the one on the Kancamagus highway, NH then ?

Here:

[glhs509]

Well done Sean!
Over to you sir!

[sparkin]

Well done Sean!
Over to you sir!

Thanks Ken. I'll leave this open again ...

[RandallC]

We haven't had one of these for a while.

WAIN?

[jacuff]

Everett Washington?

[RandallC]

Everett Washington?
Logical guess. But, no.

[Kendoway]

Udvar Hazy?

[RandallC]

Udvar Hazy?
Not Udvar Hazy

[Kendoway]

US?

If yes, West of the Mississippi?

[RandallC]

US?

If yes, West of the Mississippi?
Yes and Yes

[Kendoway]

1) California?

2) Is this an aircraft museum?

[RandallC]

1) California?

No


2) Is this an aircraft museum?
Yes

[Kendoway]

Colorado?

[BmanH]

Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum?

[RandallC]

Colorado?
not Colorado

[Kendoway]

Arizona?

[Kendoway]

Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum?

I think you are on the right track. They've got a V-tail general aviation, "Doctor Killer".

[RandallC]

Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum?

that's it! over to you

[BmanH]

that's it! over to you

Woohoo! I'm at work so I've got nothing. Someone feel free to put up one of their own.

[BmanH]

Actually, I have something. I'll put it up shortly.

[Kendoway]

It's been a while since I've put one up.

I had to dig down through the archives a bit, but this shouldn't be too tough. If it's still up after 5 guesses I'll be shocked. :shock:

Ya beat me to it. I guess I'll save it for the next time.

US? If so, northeast US?

[Kendoway]

Oops! We posted at the same time. I can take this down, and save it for later. Just say the word.

No, it's not US.

[BmanH]

No, it's okay. I already started guessing on yours so lets keep it moving.

North America? If so, Canada?

[Kendoway]

Ok, thanks.

Not North America.

[Kendoway]

I have to go and let teenagers beat me with sticks, so I'll be back in 2 hours.

[BmanH]

I have to go and let teenagers beat me with sticks, so I'll be back in 2 hours.

Sounds like fun! A human piñata.

[sparkin]

I'd suggest the UK, but the sky is way too blue.

[BmanH]

Europe?

[Roy Mathers]

I'd suggest the UK, but the sky is way too blue.

We do have skies like that sometimes Sean!:)

[Sir Plug]

We do have skies like that sometimes Sean!:)

Yep, we have 2 days of summer, every year!

I know this one. I used to live in Sth Africa and although I never got to the top, this is Maclears Beacon, the highest point of Table Mountain......hence the blue sky!:p

[Sir Plug]

I'm really sure I'm right but I'm off to bed and up early in the morning, so if it's confirmed as good, I'll leave it open...........

[sparkin]

We do have skies like that sometimes Sean!:)

Must be a newfangled climate change thing Roy! I left England in 1987, so I wouldn't know.;);)

[Roy Mathers]

Yep, we have 2 days of summer, every year!


You might do in Nottinghamshire, but down south we've had a good summer:)

[Kendoway]

I know this one. I used to live in Sth Africa and although I never got to the top, this is Maclears Beacon, the highest point of Table Mountain......hence the blue sky!:p

So if it's confirmed as good, I'll leave it open...........

Well done, and it's an excellent hike Sir Plug. We burned about 7000 calories on the ascent (the hardest hike I've ever done), and you are well rewarded with a 360 degree view at the end.

As he said, open to the first taker.

[DDCSD]

Hey guys. Sorry to butt in, but WAIN!!!??

[BmanH]

Congrats!

[monty28428]

Whoot! Congrats Derek!

[sparkin]

Congratulations Derek! :):)

Ava says hi to all the WAIN'ers. She is 7lbs 11ozs, 20 inches long and was born at 1:13 pm central time.

Both mom and her are doing great! Catch you guys later!

[monty28428]

Way to go Derek -- Great news and Ava is a cutie pie!

Hey guys. Sorry to butt in, but WAIN!!!??

Btw, is it a hospital in South Dakota? (You can't expect us to stop playing!)

[DDCSD]

Thanks everyone!!!



Way to go Derek -- Great news and Ava is a cutie pie!

Yes she is.

Must take after her Mom :-)

She certainly does! We know she couldn't have gotten those great looks from me!

Btw, is it a hospital in South Dakota? (You can't expect us to stop playing!)

Yes, it is! :lol:

[Sir Plug]

Congrats Derek!

[Roy Mathers]

Congratulations Derek - and Mrs Derek too!

[breal101]

Congratulations Derek!

[Kendoway]

Wonderful news Derek, and glad to hear everyone is healthy and happy!

I think we'll be seeing some baby pictures in about...(looks at wrist watch).... :D

[glhs509]

Congrats (again) Derek!
Now get some sleep before they return home!

[Sir Plug]

Right, whilst Derek catches up on much needed sleep, I'll post a quick win snapshot......WAIN...

[sparkin]

Looks like the Science Museum in London.

[Sir Plug]

Knew it wouldn't take long!

Over to you, Sean

[sparkin]

Knew it wouldn't take long!

Over to you, Sean

Alright, from several years ago - WAIN ?
