No, not Portugal, but it is European.

OK, Geoff. After a bit more research, I think it's the 9th July Monument on the Placa des Born in Ciutadella, Menorca.

That's spot on Andrew, a good piece of research.

Over to you for the next entry....

Geoff.

Thanks, Geoff.

It'll take me a few days to come up with the next one, so please bear with me.

I know where it is but I've run out of ideas for a new challenge photo so I am giving it a miss! ( By the way, it is in Scotland)

I guess a Jock better answer then. :-)

I would go for Urquart Castle in Loch Ness.

Sorry, but it's not Urquhart, which dates back quite a bit earlier.

Mind you, it's good to see a bit more activity on this thread, especially from another 'Jock' (being one mysel', although non-resident!)

Re: Challenge - Where is this? III

After a fair amount of searching Scottish castles (and there are lots of them) I think this one is Blackness castle on the Firth of Forth.

I believe HMRC's understanding of my status is not ordinarily resident

Well done Martin. The fact I lived virtually all my formative years less than 100 yards from the Forth is a tad embarassing

Bet you didn't view it from the pier too often. Most of the pics I found were taken from the land side which no doubt you would recognize.

Heres the next one. Probably too easy.
