    Yes, but to be fair quite a lot can be seen in that picture.

    Lolz, but it's right at the feet of the tower.

    Let’s try something a bit unorthodox. If Raffe gets this by 21:00 GMT I’ll bung £20 into Laura’s Speedmaster Raffe. Country ought to suffice.

    You weren't even here at 21:00h GMT to check, so Mr. Curta entered you into the draw.

    So if your picture is from the metasphere I accept my defeat and will pay the cost of that ticket.

    That is great sportsmanship but it just doesn’t feel right that you should need to pay a bet you hadn’t agreed on in the first place. Also doesn’t feel right that I had a ticket in the draw I hadn’t paid for. I paid £20 to the one that was a little behind of the other.

    I must admit that I don't have the smallest of clue what or where Yara is. Google doesn't seem to be my friend either, it offers a fertilizer producer and a Netflix series....?

    I had to look to confirm, but my first hunch was correct. I was actually on top of that hill back in 1994 and there is a very nice zoo at its foot of it as well.

    Imaginary country (Cuba) in the video game Far Cry 6. Amazing graphics in video games these days. The pic is cropped from a screenshot taken during regular gameplay.

    I knew that the pledge was good one way or another, it is very kind of Possu to cover it regardless.

    Have to admit the above is a long shot guess, as I saw that the building is full of brick walls.

    But I now think the watch is in front of a photograph rather than the real cogs, and for some reason the photo is mirror-inverted. I have flipped it back and have sent it through all of my secret picture search engines but no result.

    Hmm.

    Correct.

    The photo was taken at the GCHQ museum at Scarborough and it's on display at the "Top Secret: From ciphers to cyber security" exhibition, which after London and Manchester has just opened at the National Science and Media Museum in Bradford.
