Dorset is just the county - actually I really would like that you find the place. And the next town starts with "P".

Well, Walter, it's called mortar and it's must be a historic site, but for the life of me, I simply cannot pin it down, my friend; however, I would like to say I have learned a bit about geography, today, and that is what makes these threads, including the virtual tours, so rewarding.

Well, Portland is fine :wink:

Actually, it's Chesil Beach, more correctly «The 'Spirit of Portland' by artist & sculptor Joanna Szuwalska - greeting those who make their way up onto the Isle» Laughing

Your turn, osso.

Not Sicily.


Here's a map that might help picture different regions of Italy, with the name of the region and the main city for each one -

Thanks, osso.

It seems, that the pic is a bit 'cut' at the top, right?

I'm not very good in Italain regions (just noticed that I would call 'South Tyrol' is called Trentino-Alto Adige Embarrassed ), but I think, it's northern Italy.

Milano?

Yes, it is a bit cut at the top. You are close, correct with the region, Lombardy, as they say in English. (I think of the regions in their italian names, as in Lazio for Latium..)
