This is the Bahrain World Trade Centre, in...Bahrain!

This was just a patch of sea when I lived in Bahrain 25 years ago.

Smeagol in the chair.

It will have to be OH as I am out tonight and driving to Cornwall tomorrow.

Well, almost a week has elapsed and no-one has posted so I will.

This is a very famous 'castle' from an unusual angle.

[G~Man]

Aha, got a clue from the "boring & pointless" thread-----I do believe this is about 10 miles and a walk at low time from Helston..... St. Michaels Mount maybe.....?

The gnomes aren't convinced...

[llondel]

The gnomes should have more faith. I think it's St Michaels Mount, too.

[G~Man]

The gnomes are convinced after doing some detective work......

[Smeagol]

The gnomes are correct, it is St Michael's Mount but looking at the house from the seaward side. Well worked out G-Man, Mrs S and I went across to the Mount the day before visiting Helston for Flora Day.

The gnomes were toying with me

Little dratsabs...

Alrighty---where were the "Gnomes"? Another place from a "strange angle".

Knowing what lying little tykes they can be, I expect they'll claim it's the Sea of Tranquillity - and to be fair, it is an angle I've never seen before

But I expect it's off the coast of Thailand...

Thailand yes, but thinking this needs to be more precise...it is a famous location.

Ko Phi Phi Le, 'The Beach'

Nope---too far South

[G~Man]

This one is golden, I figured it would generate more responses.....

[Ex-Ascot]

Yes this is from Man with the Golden Gun. Ao Phang Nga National Park.

Khao Phing Kan and Ko Ta Pu – both separately and collectively – have been popularly called James Bond Island.

You are correct.

[Ex-Ascot]

Thank you G-Man. Try this.

[Opsboi]

Is that a Channel Island?
