No

When I say this city is in the UK, don't just restrict your guesses to England...

I was going to say Glasgow becasue of the litter bins....but didn;t recognise the building!

You are correct Chunk - photo of St Enoch's Square Glasgow, taken in August 1993 in some spare time when we looked round Glasgow before flying off to Iceland in the evening.

Well there ya go...I thought i knew Glasgow well! Should do - there every month...

OK - I'll try and not make an arse of it this time.....

If this doesn;t work I'll eat ma own head. And its a toughie.....

Is it Bengazi (I've a feeling I've spelt that wrong!)

(BTW, I'm not sure how you'd manage to eat your own head!)

chunk · Post by **chunk** » 25 Jul 2005, 18:18

Its not - but that is a good shout.

Seeing as it is difficult I will provide a clue......and will provide more if this aint enough! They do speak the same language in this place as in Benghazi!

Tripoli?
Damascus?
Aleppo?

Some wild thoughts, sorry for posting so much guesses in one reply...

BTW: The clue is not very helpful: if they speak Arabian in Libya (and I think they do) there are soooooo many possibilities...

Somewhere in Jordania?

Babylon

chunk · Post by **chunk** » 26 Jul 2005, 10:29

All good guesses but it is a bit off the beaten track.

Next clue - it is an ancient city that is mentioned in the bible a few times. So I they told us when we were there anyway.....

Damascus is geographically close!

I've got a feeling I may have made this too tough!

in Libanon?

chunk · Post by **chunk** » 26 Jul 2005, 11:37

Yep - you are right - name of the city? I see 'Lebanese Bible Sites' being googled intheir hundreds!

Airbus330lover · Post by **Airbus330lover** » 26 Jul 2005, 12:36

I suppose Baalbeck or Tyr.

chunk · Post by **chunk** » 26 Jul 2005, 14:39

Aye - well done.

It was Baalbak inthe Bekaa Valley. Great vinyards just south of there y the way......

Your go.
