Tomcat Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 San Salvador RE EDIT ignore this i ws trying to answer another question but i was on the wrong page... oops Quote Link to comment
pacman Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Which south American country has a capital city which sounds a lot like watching a video on a mountain top, but in reality has no Spanish to English translation? The city is Montevideo. I think the country is Uruguay but it may be Paraguay. I always get those two confused. Quote Link to comment
JaiDee Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 Uruguay it is, paccie Did you ever see that movie called 'Alive', about the Uruguayan rugby team which crashed in the Andes in 1972? Decent movie about a real event, with Ethan Hawke as one of the guys who climbed out of there. Quote Link to comment
Skin2fan Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Nobody got the correct answer from my contribution a couple weeks ago, but if they had put the cursor over the pic they would have seen it was Plovdiv, Bulgaria. The signpost translated to Maritsa which is the river that runs through the city. Perhaps a bit easier: 1. It is the UK 2. Multi-million £ mansions nearby are regularly bought then bulldozed to make way for bespoke rebuilds. 3. This property, which has no utilities, recently sold for nearly £200,000. Plus you're not allowed to live in it permanently. 4. Aficionado's of Bob Carolgees will have half the answer. (UK members clue) 5. A rather large river has a cake named after it plus an ex. President (US members clue) Can you name it's exact location. It' view Well had to spice it up a bit 1 Quote Link to comment
