Simple little game... Post a picture of a city, try not too have many obvious landmarks or anything, people guess which city it is. Whoever gets it rights first posts a picture of another city and it all starts again (p.s. not associated with that gameshow that used to be on sunday evenings before glenroe) i'll go first

I'm all googled out. Wherever it is they drive on the left hence the link under for countries that drive on the left. Might help to jog someone's memory.

http://www.pubquizhelp.34sp.com/misc/leftdrive.html

Came across this quote while googling - typical of the British attitude to the rest of the world

"If you are planning to visit the UK and happen to come from one of the many countries that drive on the wrong side of the road, the following advice, direct from the Ministry of Transport, is for you:

“Visitors are informed that in the United Kingdom traffic drives on the left-hand side of the road. In the interests of safety, you are advised to practise this in your country of origin for a week or two before driving in the UK.”" Yeah right. :rolleyes:
