Re: The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
^^^^ Okay, seeing as we've wrapped up Iain's latest, I've even found the photo he's used doing a quick search on the ol' Interweb, here's a fairly simple one from me.

Somewhere that does those flights I expect but I don’t know without resorting to google where those take off from.

Re: The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
Would it help if I tell you there's a passing connection to Tribus with the Spitfire?

Re: The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
^^^^^^ If Steve’s guess is correct then I’ve got it as well. However the Tribus connection has now confused me no end.

Re: The “Where’s My Watch?” Game
I was guessing Duxford yesterday. Was that right, Guy.
Today’s iPad shot. I’m pretty sure I was wearing the Speedy when I took the original.

Duxford was correct or, to be precise Imperial War Museum (IWM) Duxford.
The two seater Spitfire in the photo actually belongs to Aero Legends and it is co-located with the Historic Aircraft Collection at IWM Duxford. These are linked to the Laguna Spitfire Legacy which was supported by Tribus Watches.
As to your photo from today, I'm sorry but I'm clueless.

Thanks, Guy. The game seems to have outlived most attention spans now. Probably time to put it to bed for a while, as only three or four people are bothering.Bahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Wed Jun 08, 2022 12:20 am Belatedly, yes, Steve.

Iain happen to know my last one because he has been there too. The Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes, one of many wonderful mediaeval buildings in Rhodes Old Town, Greece.
