farangsay Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Galway Bay and the city of Galway/Ireland.LaoPo You sir are either a genius or an idiot savant. Personally I tend toward the former. However , here we need a referee. The first picture (which I joked about posting) is indeed the sun going down over Galway Bay (stop singing lads we're trying to have a conversation here) but the second picture is another connurbation some distance away. ??? What to do ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"different country, same continent": what's that supposed to mean? Britain or Europe ? You speak riddles. LaoPo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farangsay Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Jeez , did you ever wish you hadn't started something ? The first picture was just a joking reference to a previous poster's offering. The "city" I posted is in the second picture. It is not in Ireland or Britain but it is in Europe. Now if you're getting vexed go and read some chidrens' stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copenhagen Close but no cigar (yet) It's actually a quite boring roll-the-sidewalks-up-at-9pm sort of burgh but they do have an Irish pub which was handy , me being stuck there on Paddy's day.

(Or Dogtanian, for that matter!) With respect Jez, but this is sitting here for 6 days and going nowhere. The initial game of this topic is about 'What's the city' (and/or a famous landmark). France is very big and has literally millions of statues/sculptures. I've searched what I could but found nothing..... Now, come on and post a picture of the city or another hint in order not to let this thread go beserk and neglected. LaoPo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaoPo OK LP - just for you: However, I think the statue is more of a clue if you look more closely - it's of a well known fictional character who was named after the city - now if you don't get it from that, you need to go back to school!

LaoPo Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Bergerac That slipped my mind also, but Cyrano de Bergerac really existed: "Savinien de Cyrano de Bergerac (March 6, 1619 – July 28, 1655) was a French dramatist and duellist born in Paris, who is now best remembered for the many works of fiction which have been woven around his life story, most notably the play by Edmond Rostand which bears his name (see Cyrano de Bergerac (play)). In those fictional works he is featured with an overly large nose" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyrano_de_Bergerac Only later he was remembered and further re-created as a fictional figure. Therefore the quote of Jez "it's of a well known fictional character who was named after the city" is a kind of misleading. Just my opinion.

Sorry to be slightly misleading - the fictional Cyrano had a rather large nose, as does the statue (It has to be replaced several times a year due to souvenir hunters hacking it off!)
