(International) Guess the Location (see rules post 1)

Morpork

The only reason I got it was because you mentioned that it references your post history in here. But you can't really expect people to follow it. Then after that the little yellow sign by the corner flag matched with photos of the stadium.

Anyway,

this one is extremely easy, I just wanted to keep the controversy going.

us embassy

controversial indeed.

international > inter national > between nations

as Boards is irish the picture can't be from ireland, that would make it national no inter about it.

Morpork

Good lad!

Jmayo, "please stop trying to JUSTIFY it"... yes, the upset I caused by posting an obscure, non-descript photo WAS the same as comment a heinous crime and I must justify my motives for doing it or my own self-value as a human being will be down the pan. I couldn't let the justification comment go, yes, I posted a picture, I am officially worse as a person than a murderer. Sheesh. "Justify it"... it was a photo, grow up eh.

That's my parting comment on this thread. I have no desire to define where some statue of a twit on a horse is if the stadium of the city that has won the most Champions Leagues is considered so unreasonable that someone must "justify" their heinous conduct by posting a picture of it. I mean, the San Siro. Whoever heard of that?

Well done K.Flyer you're up.

The Col du Petit, Saint-Bernard has some pretty cool history associated with it.

All - please refresh yourselves with the rules in post 1 from here on. Thanks

Since "no twit on a horse" has become a slogan on here and people are still referring to me even in my "short absence" I will rejoin you. Call me a sadomasochist but I love being around people who hate me lol.

I think it could be somewhere in the UK.

"I think that each pick should be distinctive enough to make the country chosen reasonably easy to guess. Once a poster got that far, the originator would confirm and perhaps provide a framework for getting closer to the target"

For a start you responded to a mod action on thread which is a pretty basic site rule that you should be aware of.
