Hi ladies.

Liz is correct with Wyoming

elizabeth22673 - 1

1. Wyoming - elizabeth22673

A few rules
1. You can guess as many times as you want for each pic. there are absolutely no time limits. BUT.... .you must only guess ONCE per post.

2. NO EDITING of posts.

3. In the event of a tie time-wise, any mis-spellings or omissions will lose out, otherwise ALL ties get a point. This will ONLY come into play if it's a tie on time, unless lexie or I think an unfair advantage is gained. Our decision is final, so yah-boo-sucks!!

4. There is no rule 4.

5. The first to 25 wins that particular sprint. the top 3 will be entered into a hall of fame in the first post of the thread. Once that happens, all scores are reset to zero. this is to enable new people to join at any time should they so wish to.

For some reason, I get "iconography".

Probably wrong.

Nope.. not probably.

Definitely.

Let's just say, with apologies to them.... that I'm wholly unsurprised the Americans don't know it.

D'OH!

me too initially!!

Okay... so I was completely off.. just very nearly so!

Hello Janey

 

[Guest]

The words were in the cockney dialect. Cockney people are from London. To be a TRUE cockney you have to be born within the sound of Bow Bells (bells in a part of London called Bow..... the police force knows as the Bow Street Runners came from there hundreds of years ago).

So.. in short.. it's the letter 'i' talking in a London accent. = London i = London Eye.

Below is the London Eye
