it's definitely not Cat Town, the eye-patch is a bourgeoisie-poser dead giveaway!
― calzino, Friday, 26 March 2021 23:11 (five years ago)
It looks like it could be a cemetery, and cats in cemeteries always make me think Paris, but the bench doesn’t look like Pere Lachaise.
It could definitely be Recoleta in Buenos Aires.

yeah cats in a cemetery always makes me think of la recoleta first, though cats in a cemetery seems to be a common thing. ive never been to buenos aires incidentally, but i did plan a solo trip there many moons ago, and have read up on the city a bit

Yep Recoleta! A place I have been but don’t think I formed particularly strong memories of. Are you supposed to remember things?
― Canon in Deez (silby), Friday, 26 March 2021 23:43 (five years ago)
Looking at pictures does bring the memories back. It’s very prestigious real estate, with cats.

I think I saw a cat inside of a glass-doored crypt in there

This can likely be reverse image searched very easily but I am sure ye can work it out without that.

did this building by some miracle survive ww2 or was it rebuilt?
― calzino, Saturday, 27 March 2021 11:14 (five years ago)
It’s Warsaw University of Technology which was damaged in the war and restored in the fifties, I think, with a glass roof added later.

Am I OK to post an image?
― Vanishing Point (Chinaski), Saturday, 27 March 2021 15:27 (five years ago)
As in, I've never quite worked out what the rules are (or if there are any!).
I think the only "rule" (unspoken) is to not post a new image until the current one has been guessed, so you're good to go!
― rob, Saturday, 27 March 2021 15:34 (five years ago)
OK, cheers! Absolutely someone will get this right away because I've missed some sigh saying the name in massive capital letters...

Bridgetown, Barbados is my first thought.

Not a million miles away but not Barbados, no.

I mean, there is that famous harbour view of Willemstad with the painted houses - but the mountain in the background, no idea

Curacao just dished out a 5-0 spanking of Saint Vincent & the Grenadines the other night

Thought it might be Bo Kaap in Cape Town but perhaps not quite colourful enough and that's not quite Table Mountain

I'd like to post pictures to this thread but I'm a bit of a luddite. What do you guys do, take a screenshot or share a google maps streetview to imgur and then link it?

I take a screenshot and then post to postimg.cc

Instinctively thought Denver but those trees look like horse chestnuts so I think somewhere in the UK.

they're driving on the right. it's not the uk. and there's a bus lane which makes me think it's not the US.
