Sparkie2182 9th September 2022 18:54

#13. Answer.

German

Malcolm G 9th September 2022 18:54

#15 - Looks like Calabria without Sicily, but if it's UK then it must be Penzance I suppose.

Sparkie2182 9th September 2022 18:56

"Yes!

......and a very nice burger bar about a quarter of a mile away.

Square beaches should give it away.

Sparkie2182 9th September 2022 22:00

Wouldn't have given it away to me to be honest.

Her flag?

My first instinct is Australian! Otherwise, German.

YM-Mundrabilla 10th September 2022 00:54

Obviously 'down under' Southern Hemisphere somewhere!
I can tell because it's upside down. :jester:

Makko 10th September 2022 04:40

#31 - Lowestoft?

Sparkie2182 10th September 2022 07:46

German.

German sub being "recycled" apparently.

I inverted it as a tribute to our Australian chums

Any "pieces missing" is due to your settings i believe.

Sparkie2182 10th September 2022 07:49

Thanks for including the post number makko
It helps sometimes.

Unfortunately it does nothing to make your answer correct

It, sadly, isnt.
