Geography word game

First topic message reminder :

Name a geographical landmark that starts with the last letter of the place listed before it. (Can be anywhere in the world.)

So - Whitby Abbey could be followed by York Minster.

'R' landmark anyone?

What, you dinna like my Rochester?

by astra Mon Feb 20, 2012 9:45 pm

Not so Bro'!! Very Happy

It's like my home city of Perth. There are so MANY around the world, even a part of New York named after it! (Perth I mean) Even here in Washington, MSN gets itself in knots as if it does not know about the original here in North East England.

I've looked that up, Rev. Hornby, and suspect that it is a confection of the moment, a chimera designed to deflect the Reader from more serious matters convulsing World Order. Anyway I think we've had it before, or was that Hay-on-Wye? It's all too much for me! (sob).

(Dries eyes, stiffens resolve), and ripostes ......

England, our England!!

Get out of that without invoking Scottish bothies.

Is this the time to mention that I am not a real vicar ? ( though I know my customarily gentle demeanour belies that). Embarassed
