***Where am I now?*** (game) (4)

[Kendoway]

It's funny, my wife Rochelle has been a travel agent for almost 14 years, and is a HUGE cartography fan (antique maps are her specialty) and regularly looks at hundreds of travel brochures on a daily basis, and/or destinations.

She's not a POTN'er but I regularly show her the shots posted here and she'll chime in with a clue on occasion based on gut instinct. She's often right on the money, or will give me a good clue.

I often think that wanderlust is a gender neutral addiction, so perhaps I’m wrong.

Again, I would ask – why are there fewer gals here?

[GoneTomorrow]

Haven't done one in a while, so WAIN?

We already answered this.

[Darsk47]

We keep the place clean, always take out the empty beer bottles, keep our hair combed, bath regularly - etc.

LOL - and there's no smoking - well at least that I can tell from where I participate !

[Roy Mathers]

:-) We've had a few lady wainers - I think Roy runs them off rather quickly though ;-)

I keep them for myself Monty:).

By the way, do you remember Annietex, who was a WAIN addict not too long ago? We haven't heard from her recently.

[Roy Mathers]

Are you saying the ladies have poor spelling and grammar skills? :lol:

There are other things to look for in the ladies apart from spelling and grammar skills;)

[Roy Mathers]

We already answered this.

Crannog ?

[corbie3]

It is described as a Crannog on one website I've found- but going by the definition of a Crannog being an ancient Irish dwelling built on an artificial island in a lake or a marsh (answers.com) then no it isn't that.

[corbie3]

That's correct Randy, well done.
The structure is used for charcoal burning and has collapsed a bit since the website photos were taken- I think its legs got a bit rotten. I know how it feels having just returned from a couple of weeks touring the music pubs in County Clare.
