98 is indeed Roanoke, well done! Surpisingly recognisable and distinctive perhaps

cherry blossom, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 16:55 (seventeen years ago)

I grew up there! More recognizable with the star, perhaps ;)

doo dah, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 17:11 (seventeen years ago)

one month passes...

99. Ok so its hardly a city but I'm sure someone will get it!

new hope, pa?

909090909 Rivethed Brikkchin Reverk now DANZ (Mackro Mackro), Friday, 9 January 2009 16:34 (seventeen years ago)

It isn't - but that is a very good guess!

cherry blossom, Friday, 9 January 2009 16:36 (seventeen years ago)

91: Valdez, Alaska?

Eazy, Friday, 9 January 2009 16:43 (seventeen years ago)

Oh, wait, I just saw the first 91 photo, and now I says, Halifax?

Eazy, Friday, 9 January 2009 16:45 (seventeen years ago)

I'm guessing it has to be in the U.S. Right-side driving + use of word "State Law". Then again, maybe some provinces use the word "state" for sign purposes?

and you know, american flags. minor details.

100. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/21/37173120_8298b74779.jpg?v=0

101: Glossop? It's not Bath is it?

caek, Tuesday, 20 January 2009 13:42 (seventeen years ago)

Closer with the first guess. Wildly wrong with the second!

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:18 (seventeen years ago)

I said it's not Bath! : )

Uh, Harrogate?

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:21 (seventeen years ago)

A bit too hilly for Harrogate!

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:22 (seventeen years ago)

#100 is hard - I don't even know what to guess at

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:23 (seventeen years ago)

I don't actually know what Harrogate is like, but the photo seems a bit posher than a lot of the dumps I'm thinking of.

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:24 (seventeen years ago)

101 looks a bit like Hebden Bridge to me.

Tim, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:25 (seventeen years ago)

I was going to say Wakefield, yeah

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:25 (seventeen years ago)

bah, you got it

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:26 (seventeen years ago)

Torquay?

Alba, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:41 (seventeen years ago)

nope

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:45 (seventeen years ago)

Swansea.

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 11:13 (seventeen years ago)

Addis Ababa.

Alba, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 11:42 (seventeen years ago)

haha

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 11:43 (seventeen years ago)

clue for #100: its in the UK.

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 12:18 (seventeen years ago)

99. still unguessed. And how did a tilt shift photo of it appear almost as soon as it was posted?!!

100. I feel like this is maybe in Cumbria?

101. Hebden Bridge yes!

102. Newton Abbot?

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 12:30 (seventeen years ago)

102 I was thinking Devon too - Sidmouth? Torbay?

100 no, not Cumbria!

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 12:40 (seventeen years ago)

There's something about 100 that makes me think its on the west somewhere (Strathclyde? Lancashire?)

And then I look at it again and I think of the south bank of the Thames somewhere east of Greenwich.

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:04 (seventeen years ago)

Could be Birkenhead or other left Bank Merseyside locale?

Ed, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:07 (seventeen years ago)

I wondered whether 100 was the north bank of the Thames, weast of London, like Grays or somewhere.

102 is blocked from this computer, which is frustrating because my hometown is one of the outstanding guesses!

Tim, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:08 (seventeen years ago)

"weast", nice. East, I meant.

Tim, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:08 (seventeen years ago)

#100 Not Thames, Mersey or Clyde. Nor Lancashire.

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:20 (seventeen years ago)

none of the 102 guesses are right, but none of them are crazy

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:39 (seventeen years ago)

Truro? Penzance? St Ives?

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:42 (seventeen years ago)

penzance it is

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:43 (seventeen years ago)

hooray for me and random guesses.

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 14:00 (seventeen years ago)

some good guesses for #100, but no-one's clicked which estuary it is. once you know that, the city should be easy.

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 14:06 (seventeen years ago)

grimsby?

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 14:11 (seventeen years ago)

close.

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 14:12 (seventeen years ago)

ha, hull

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 14:13 (seventeen years ago)

Yes!

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 14:16 (seventeen years ago)

I thought Penzance looked a bit familiar there. And I should have got Hull - the aquarium is very distinctive after all.
