The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
Re: The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
Another one from a book rather than a photo I’ve taken.

Re: The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
Steve is it a stock photo, or one of your own?

Re: The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
Iain and Neil got this. It is the Riddarholmen church in Stockholm. Sounds like it could be from Tolkien’s Rohan.
Iain, your Omega is at a funfair. It looks like a mediaeval location, in fact one I was going to use myself at some point. I love your little visual joke. PM coming.

Re: The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
Well I think only Steve is still playing along with my last photo. It’s the medieval French city of Carcassonne, the walls of which are just showing to the side of the carousel.
The wooden pieces are taken from the board game Carcassonne and were the clue here.
Does anyone have anymore photographs for us to guess? I’ve a few up my sleeve that I’ll add in a few days if this remains quiet.

^^^^ Depending on what happens later, could that be classed as a exit watch?

Go on then, I’ll put this one up to distract everyone from the idea we’re on the naughty step.

Re: The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
Well, apart from the yellow board advertising 80 sorts of Swiss cheese, I can see three other clues.
