Thanks. It made the news several times...

Something you don't see every "Day of the Week"



I like the way it looks like you are actually there if you scroll it up & down

Re: Challenge - Where is this? III

The little section of Tower 42 gives it away.

It's Old Broad St: taken from the corner of Throgmorton St in the grand City of London.

Isn't Throgmorton St a wonderful name for a street?

Re: Challenge - Where is this? III

Will need 505 clues to get this one

As I knew of it, but couldn't remember where it was, it would be unfair to give away where it is, now that I have looked it up...

Nope, not the Belfast.

Re: Challenge - Where is this? III

Is it the German U boat 505 which was donated to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, Illinois and is now a museum ship?

It is a U Boat, but it's this side of the pond.
