I usually avoid looking at your virtual tourist pages when you've put a puzzle up but just to help you out before you go (BTW have a good time)

Kotes (never heard of it before)

Oh and your shot of the Excel plane made Michael's day!

OK, back onboard now.

Just looked Marathias up on the map, Lilian. Don't remember it!!
So, it would seem it's between VickyS and Stoupaduck, as they each got a location right.

On the first come first served basis, what's the name of the place where the photograph was taken from?

...to be fair pretty easy if you've made the hike up there, but if not it might prove difficult to work out?

Need to find something new now.

I recognise the cat, it's definitely called Nigel but afraid I don't recognise the place. Guessing at the Sporades.

Well, as I have never been to the Sporades apart from landing briefly on Skiathos, I can proceed no further. It's definitely Nigel, though.....

Actually Chris, I think you'll find that the cat is in fact 'Nigella'. Her brother met with an unfortunate accident involving a meat pie I believe.
I reckon the pics are of Achladia on Skiathos

Given the derivation of Nigel/Nigella, it's more likely the cat was called Bouboulina - with apologies to all Nigel's everywhere the Greeks are far too sensible to have anything sounding remotely similar.

Kidder is correct about the location - this is where we ended up on our day out from Gatwick.

Nice one John. I wasn't around on the old Camboard then, so that event was new to me. As someone said at the time...........'How cool are you?'

Got to find a pic myself now. Rolling Eyes




I just read out the report to Carol John, and a big grin spread across her face, and she said, "Bl**dy Hell!"

Very reminiscent of the "pumice quarries" on Naxos but it looks more like natural erosion than mining.
