Some non Scottish Where is it?

Post by Gardenshed »

Which stretch of water was I crossing on Monday last week?
Image

The week befor that, I saw this sign. Which country is it in?
Image

The week before that, I had trouble reading the local signs: Which country has writing like this?
Image


but things were more tranquil the week before that, where may I have found
1. a great retirement spot
Image
2. a new multihull to play with
Image

In January, where were these british flagged boats?
Image

Image

Image

And finally, back in January, where was I when I suggested to my youngest kid "don't pull that.."

No.1 Bosphorus

No.2 Singapore

Surely everyone knows that Claymore Road is in Singapore?

No real idea about the rest although the script in No.3 looks vaguely Indonesion.

OK the British flagged yachts are in Thailand, possibly Ko Rok Nok, Ko Rok Noi or Ko Butang.

Well I can see you weren't impressed by that.

The last pic is probably the so-called Tiger Temple at Kanchanaburi in Thailand.

"Well I can see you weren't impressed by that" No, its the time difference

Correct with the Tiger Temple in Kanchanaburi.

Close with the island guesses, but not correct. Go north from Phuket, not south.

.......... and two locations still to go
